We are going to my brother’s house to celebrate Thanksgiving with him and his family since they are going out of town tomorrow for a couple weeks. I made a plant-based version of the spanakopita recipe that is in the original Moosewood cookbook. I used Miyoko’s butter instead of the real thing, vegan feta crumbles instead of real feta cheese, and mashed firm tofu with nutritional yeast as a substitute for the cottage cheese. I’ve made this exactly the same way a few times and it comes close to the original recipe. There will be all kinds of side dishes and delicious desserts, enough to please everyone. Cheers! 🥂
