Answer 2

Tofurky and Unturkey are excellent and come with all the trimmings (except veggies).

Or you could make your own:

Tofu Turkey

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

5 blocks organic tofu (firm)
11/2 tablespoon vegetarian chicken stock powder (optional)
11/2 teaspoon each; sage, thyme, summer savoury, black pepper
1/4 cup toasted sesame seed oil
1/2 cup tamari (soy sauce)
3-4 cups of your favourite stuffing

Directions:

Serves 10.

1. Mix together sesame oil and tamari, set aside.

2. In a large bowl break up the tofu well by hand or with a potato masher. Add herbs and pepper and vegtarian chicken stock powder (optional), mix well.

3. Line a medium, round bottomed colander with one layer of cheese cloth or a clean dish towel. Put the tofu mixture in colander and fold remaining cheese cloth over the top. Place the colander in the sink or over a large bowl and place a heavy weight on top. Press for aprox. 2-3 hours (longer if soft tofu is used). Make your stuffing.

4. After pressing and with the tofu still in the colander, scoop out the centre, leaving about an inch of tofu around the edges. Place your stuffing in the cavity. Put the tofu mixture you scooped out over the dressing and press down firmly.

5. Flip the formed turkey on to an oiled cookie sheet and brush the top with the oil and tamari mixture, cover with tin foil and place in a 350° oven for about 1 hour brushing with oil mixture every 15 min.

6. After 1 hour remove foil and bake uncovered for about 45 minuites, watching carefully so as not to burn. At this stage you are forming the skin or crust. Brush 4-5 times more during this hour.

7. When the bird turns a dark golden brown, remove from oven. Serve hot with mushroom gravy and all the trimmings.

makawao_kane almost hit my version of tofu turkey except I don't use the oriental seasonings or chickie broth. Most people think turkey tastes like celery, onion and sage so I have them juiced into mine plus I replace some of the tofu with seitan for texture.

For holiday mashed potatoes I boil the spuds with several garlic cloves to jazz them up.

Gravy made from veggie soup base and a dash of bourbon

Everyone always wants my chocolate kreme pie made from tofu.

I make 'cheezy' dinner rolls (actually Nut. yeast).

I'm normally the only vegetarian at the table and all the 'carnivores' are amazed how 'traditional' everything is (except the turkey). I had a mother-in-law that hated my guts because they wanted me to cook instead of her! If you want the recipes email me, I don't have 'em with me right now and most are way too long to post.

Answer 5

I've never tried Tofurky but I hear its good stuff. I've seen it at Whole Foods but you could order it online. Check to see if you have an organic food store in you area, or check the frozen food section for Boca, Morningstar and I believe Auntie Ann's makes some vegetarian food.
