GOBBLE, GOBBLE, GOBBLE!
Thankgsiving, quite possibly one of my favorite Holidays every year. This year I hosted my very first Thanksgiving and had 10 guests, and it wasn't as hard as you would think. To the left is our Thanksgiving Day menu. In case you don't have super laser vision, the menu reads:
Appetizers
Warm mixed olives
Smokehouse Almonds
Stuffed Mushrooms
Harvest Crackers with Irish Cheddar and Spicy Pepperoni
First Course
Butternut Squash Soup with dollop of nutmeg whipped cream
Main Course
Rosemary and Sage Turkey
Sausage Cranberry Stuffing
Homemade Cranberry Sauce with Ginger
Orange Infused Green Beans
Sweet Potatoe Casserole with Marshmallows and Pecans
Garlic and Chive Creamy Smashed Potatoes
Buttermilk Biscuits
Bourbon Gravy
Dessert
Apple Crumble
Pumpkin Pie
Drinks
Spiced Sangria
Malbec
Pinot Noir
Coffee
I know it looks like a pretty extensive menu, but it was actually really easy to pull together. So many things could be prepped in advance so the day of all I really had to do was heat things up and set the table.
I will post the recipes for each menu item in a second entry, Thanksgiving II shortly.
In the meantime I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday Season.
