    Vegan Sausage Stuffing Casserole at Thanksgiving is spiced just right and it's made with cornbread. This dressing recipe can match any stuffing in any test.

    Vegan Sausage Stuffing Casserole at Thanksgiving is quite a treat and it can match any family favorite. Maybe even surpass.

    It's moist and spicy just like the original omni dressing.

    I'm starting to think up our Thanksgiving menu and a major part of it is already done. We will have three main tasty dishes with this vegan sausage dressing being one of them.

    Then there will be a cold bean salad of some sort and dinner rolls, of course.

    I really enjoy planning meals. Not at the last moment but when I am in the mood. Then I get out a pencil and pad and make up a few menus at a time.

    They are kept in a blue binder that I can always refer back to. Ohhh, I digress.

    Another favorite stuffing dish for the family has lots of mushrooms. It's very different from this recipe and you just might want to give Savory Cremini Mushroom Dressing a try too.

    Take a peek!

    Cremini Mushroom Dressing is piled high in three different shaped white bowls and they all sit on a wooden cutting board.

    This traditional comfort food can be served to any member of your family or group of friends because they will truly appreciate it.

    I used store-bought plant-based sausage for this Vegan Sausage Stuffing Casserole because you always need a little help on a big cooking day like Thanksgiving.

    Make Ahead For the Holiday When You Can

    Another helpful option is that the casserole can be put together a day or two or three ahead and then kept in the refrigerator. Then bake the day of the party.

    In fact, every one of the recipes in the menu plan below can be prepared in advance and baked in advance or baked the day of.

    I need to get a post up with a Thanksgiving day menu and give the shopping list and planning instructions. This week for sure!

    I mean, it's Oct. 7th already and you know how time flies.

    Below is a Thanksgiving Menu to tempt you to no end. Click on any of the highlighted links to look at the included recipes and see lots of delicious looking photos.

    Vegan Thanksgiving Menu

    You can start your day with Easy Pumpkin Muffins and a nice cup of coffee.

    For a super pre-dinner appetizer, there's Rolled Toasted Mushroom Appetizers because everyone in the house will love them.

    Naturally, there has to be dip and veggies so pull out the White Bean Dip because it's a great partner to just about everything.

    In the morning, right after your muffin, you can fill up the crockpot with the best Thanksgiving side dish. Slow Cooker Wild Rice is full of vegetables, flavor, is gorgeous and tasty.

    Don't forget the best Herbed Scalloped Potatoes you ever will make! They are truly the best and can be made earlier in the day too.

    Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecans is a fantastic twist on the typical sweet mashed sweet potatoes.

    Dairy Free Herbed Scalloped Potatoes is tilted towards you and is golden brown and in a red casserole dish. Fresh herbs and green cloth on the side.
    You just can't beat a bowlful of Maple Glazed Rolled Cut Carrots either.

    Vegan Meatloaf with Chickpeas, Green Split Peas and Mushrooms is amazing. Leave off the tomato topping and serve with a delicious Brown Gravy.

    The word of the day is Dessert and in the tradition of Americans, there are at least two desserts. Mini Pecan Pies Tarts will make everyone very happy.

    Gosh, I'm stuffed.

    Vegan Sausage Stuffing Casserole at Thanksgiving is a treat and it's made with cornbread stuffing.  This dressing recipe can match any stuffing in any test.

    Leftovers freeze beautifully. I will make this recipe just to freeze in single sized servings. It heats so quickly in the microwave and is a really tasty snack or lunch.

    IF FREEZING:

    Let cool to room temperature.

    Cover with plastic wrap and then slide into a freezer bag. You can also freeze in smaller single or double serving freezer containers.

    TO PREPARE AFTER FREEZING:

    Remove from the freezer and put in the refrigerator to defrost from 4 to 6 hours.

    THE NIGHT OF SERVING IF PREVIOUSLY PROZEN:

    Place the dressing in a microwavable safe bowl and heat on high for about 2 to 3 minutes stirring every minute.

      What product is the 16 oz of corn bread stuffing? Prepackaged breadcrumbs? And what is spike spice?

      Thanks!

      Oh, dear. They've downsized since I made this recipe to 12 oz. I always use Mrs. Cubbison's cornbread stuffing. I saw that Pepperidge Farm still has 16 oz. You can still use the same measurements on everything except the vegetable broth. Use 1 1/2 cups. Spike is a natural seasoning mix and it comes in a small jar. I see it down low in the herbs section of the grocery store. I use original and it has 39 spices and herbs and you can use it on just about every vegetable too.
