This hearty Vegan French Onion Stew is packed with plant-based flavor, and also doubles as a gravy!

Today is the next recipe in my #WellandFullThanksgiving series! This Vegan French Onion Stew is INSANELY good. It absolutely amazes me how flavorful it is – the caramelized onions are so savory and umami. But what I love most of all is that this stew can be also used as a gravy on top of my vegan mashed cauliflower or millet stuffing!! The mashed cauliflower especially is such a fantastic flavor combination, I highly recommend giving it a try!

I’ve been having a little bit of writer’s block when it comes to what I’d like to share here on the blog. Well, that’s not entirely true – it’s not really writer’s block, it’s more of a desire to not sound like a downer! I’ve had one bad circumstance after another occur in my life over the past year, and there’s unfortunately not a lot of positivity to share.

When I first started blogging, I shared a lot of my life in every post. I remember during the time, I felt like I was always coming to realizations and learning things about life. But now, I don’t feel that I’m learning anything (other than that bad things will always happen to you when you least expect it). I think that I’m still so close to everything that happened that I haven’t had time to learn or grow from it all. Once I do, I’ll be sure to share my lessons. But I will need to put some distance between me and this past year before I can do that.

So for now, please accept the recipes! It means so much to me to have cooking as a creative and therapeutic outlet. I love developing recipes to share here, and it’s so awesome seeing people tag me in their creations on Instagram. Stay tuned for more Thanksgiving recipes this week and next! :)

P.S.
