Gobble, gobble, gobble have you found the perfect tofu turkey recipe yet?

Ginnifer Goodwin has teamed up with Farm Sanctuary to launch their Adopt-a-Turkey program.

The Big Love star is participating in the program that was designed to end the practice of commercially raised turkeys that are slaughtered in masses annually.

About 45 million turkeys are slaughtered in the U.S. for Thanksgiving each year, according to the Farm Sanctuary website.

“After spending time with the rescued turkeys at Farm Sanctuary’s shelter and seeing how similar they are to my furry companion animals at home, I knew I needed to do everything in my power to protect these friendly and curious birds from the daily pain and suffering they endure on factory farms,” said Goodwin.

“With so many delicious, cruelty-free Thanksgiving dishes available, there is no reason why any living being should be treated like an unfeeling commodity. I encourage everyone to start a new, compassionate Thanksgiving tradition this year and Adopt-A-Turkey, rather than eat one.”

For a one time donation of $25, you can adopt a turkey living at Farm Sanctuary and receive an adoption certificate in your name or donate sponsorships as gifts to families and friends.

Giada De Laurentiis made an appearance at Alicia Silverstone‘s launch party for her book The Kind Diet: A Simple Guide to Feeling Great, Losing Weight, and Saving the Planet held at Candle 79 vegan restaurant.

Does the Food Network‘s Italian cooking diva have a thing for vegan meals?

If so, we’d love to see Giada feature a cheeseless lasagna dish, similar to her recipe we found for vegetarian Individual Vegetable Lasagnas.

The Kind Diet is set for release October 13.

Real Housewives of New York City star and celebrity natural foods chef  Bethenny Frankel has created a series of recipes that uses Pepperidge Farm‘s new 100-Calorie Deli Flats Thin Rolls.

“Deli Flats thin rolls offer a soft, wholesome and delicious taste in a figure-friendly portion. I love recommending them to friends and clients,” said Frankel. “At 100 calories and five grams of fiber per roll, Deli Flats are a good foundation for everyday healthy eating and an important part of making smarter sandwiches, better burgers and more. In my opinion, Deli Flats thin rolls are the greatest thing since sliced bread!”

Pepperidge Farm 100 calorie Deli Flat Thin Rolls come in Soft 100% Whole Wheat, Soft Oatmeal and 7 Grain.

Since Bethenny has remembered her veg fans in the past, we aren’t surprised this batch of recipes includes a vegetarian sandwich with hummus and eggplant, the feta cheese being optional if you’re vegan.

Anybody who knows Russell Simmons knows he takes to yoga and vegan food like a fish to water.

So it was no surprise when Russell Tweeted about his dining experience at the Jivamukti Cafe, located in the Jivamukti Yoga center.

“In the jivamukti cafe eating spicey tempeh salad and dahl (indian style lentil soup) jay z playing”

Jivamukti boasts it grows and harvests its own wheatgrass and sprouts in house, along with baking fresh vegan goodies.

As an example of how Jivamukti might serve home grown sprouts, they’ve included a recipe for a Sprout Bowl for you to try at home.

Forrest Kline of hellogoodbye showed off his vegan exhibitionist side when he Tweeted a pic of a vegan pizza (though we think the nose and chin pictured isn’t Forrest).

“Epic vegan BBQ chicken pizza. Andy put ketchup on it. Ketchup & BBQ? Arch enemies.”

But oh, Forrest, how can ketchup and barbecue feud when, as any veg chef knows, one can easily be spiced up to create the other?

If you’re looking to salivate with inspiration, keep looking at the pic.

If you’re looking to make your own vegan barbecue chicken pizza, here’s a recipe idea.
