| Persian Jeweled Rice with cranberries is a fantastic thanksgiving side. Just don’t tell the boomers it’s Persian. Call it thanksgiving rice |

Potatoes
Celery/onion/carrots Caramelized onions Mushrooms Cranberries Butter/milk/cream Pumpkin Roasted vegetables—any kind Is “bread” a flavor? Bread! I love a good butternut squash/apple soup as a starter and for the next day. |
