Bundaratna.com - A vegetarian turkey roast is a plant-based alternative to a traditional turkey roast. It is made from a variety of ingredients, such as seitan, tofu, or tempeh, and is often flavored and seasoned to taste like turkey. It can be served as a main dish for a vegetarian or vegan holiday meal, or as an alternative to turkey for anyone looking to reduce their meat consumption. Some popular vegetarian turkey roast recipes include ones made with seitan, which is a protein-rich food made from wheat gluten, and ones made with tofu or tempeh, which are plant-based proteins made from soybeans.
