It's that time of year when we start looking for the holiday recipes!

Thanksgiving is coming soon for the USA (we already had ours in Canada), and this is a time when a lot of us are looking for cruelty-free options for the table. This year I was staring at a large zucchini and a leftover bag of cranberries and thought I'd combine the two into something for our (distanced) Canadian Thanksgiving.

The first recipe, a cranberry zucchini boat, is the result of that marriage.

I also added a new gravy recipe, a miso gravy. It's a bit less peppery than my other gravy recipe, and I think works well with this zucchini boat. I prefer cranberry sauce, personally, so am also including that recipe in the newsletter. Find more recipes for the holidays following these featured ones.

We'll probably be making these all over again for the holidays in December. Add a comment, add a rating, and let us know what you think or how you adjusted things to your taste!

Take care, and stay safe this year.
