Thanksgiving dinner is one of my favorites, when else can you have 6 side dishes?
We are having: Turkey Cornbread stuffing with sausage, dried apricots and pistachios Sweet potato soufflé Mashed potatoes Green beans vinaigrette with capers and red onion Spiced cranberry-apple sauce Pearl onion gratin with gruyere cheese Apple Pie Pumpkin Pie with bourbon whipped cream for lunch I make curried pumpkin-apple soup, salad and cornbread to munch on before dinner at 6 |
Dinner at 6? We just skip the fancy lunch and have dinner at 2:30. |

Yes, absolutely. Add gravy to my post. I'm the one who is making challah stuffing with cherries and sausage. THe recipe is from Real Simple magazine here: http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/dried-cherry-italian-sausage-stuffing-10000001031588/index.html They say to use French bread but someone on this forum mentioned Challah so that's what I used. I just finished making this, and OMG it is delicious!! |
Wow, now I feel like we're not making enough.
