Why waste time being the guinea pig with dairy substitutes? I wasted spent an unbelievable amount of time scouring the internet to uncover Thanksgiving recipes that are already dairy-free. That's right, no need to guess on substitutes or hope that alternatives will work. These recipes were created or altered to be dairy-free, and tested as so. There are many vegan and egg-free recipes in the list below, several gluten-free and soy-free options too, but the one thing these recipes all have in common ... they are made without milk ingredients. Yep, casein-free, lactose-free, dairy-free. Bread, desserts, vegetables, turkey, stuffing, gravy ... well, go ahead, take a peak and see if some of these (100+) recipes deserve a place on your Thanksgiving table! ...
