I need help with my Thanksgiving menu. Do you have any tried and true recipes you’d like to share with the hungry Fishbowl family?
My MIL just came out of surgery (hi Mary!) and I’m doing’ the cooking at her place this year. She’s making the stuffing (because there is no stuffing like her stuffing) and I’m making a loaf of bread, but otherwise everything is up for grabs. Help!
My criteria:
– feeds six
– there must be one turkey
– there must be a few traditional dishes on the menu
– no one but me likes sweet potatoes a.k.a yams
– there has to be something fresh and green
– I like to throw in one wacky dish just to keep my in-laws on their toes. And by wacky I mean braised onions. ;)
– Dessert! We can’t forget dessert!
– The majority of dishes must be make-aheads and relatively easy todo. (I don’t see myself deboning a capon and making puff patries with it or anything like that.) Otherwise I just won’t be able to cope.
Bonus points to those who post actual links to actual recipes.
Dinner is on Sunday. Aaaarrrrrgh.
