Gobble Gobble

Where to you celebrate and what do you typically have on your Thanksgiving table? Is everything homemade, restaurant catered, or boxed/canned? Anything new this year?

Where:
Thanksgiving is always at my parents house.

Menu includes:
turkey
Tofuky roast and/or veggie lasagna (for me and my hubby but others enjoy it, too)
stuffed mushrooms (I developed an allergy to mushrooms so I can no longer indulge GRRRR!)
cole slaw
stuffing made in a tray, not inside the turkey (just always the way my mom makes it)
mashed turnips
roasted veggies or brussel sprouts and onions
mashed potatoes (some years)
cranberry sauce
dinner rolls
pumpkin bars with cream cheese icing
pumpkin pie

Homemade/other:
everything is homemade except the dinner rolls, they are from Costco

New:

If I have to time and can find the recipe, I may make lentil stuffed cabbage

  • For us it's different different years depending on if my family is in town hosting out of town friends/family or out of town.

    If here we go to my inlaws to visit then my family for dinner

    Food is different each place:
    Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce at each

    My side does more fresh and cooked veggies, my inlaws is more casseroles

    BUT there's two things I must have so if going to my inlaws or if my families not making it I make a broccoli and cheese casserole, and fresh cranberry relish!!

    Wow I never really realized how much we make until I wrote it all down. My Mom makes the Turkey and the Ham. My Dad is strange and doesn't really care for Turkey so she makes him a ham as well. She also makes the stuffing. I make all the pies and my sister, aunt and I divide up most of the sides and appetizers.

    I think this is the same recipe. My mom always makes it anytime we have ham. I think I have made it once and it was easy and it is always a big hit.

    That's simple. Think I might try this at some point.
