[quote=Anonymous]I do all of the vegetable prep the day before - peeling, slicing, chopping. Celery and onions are fine for a day or two, but I'm not sure about freezing, I think the texture would change. I'd think freezing the bread would work well, but it's worth a test like the PP suggested. Mashed potatoes can definitely be done ahead of time. They freeze well, or make the day before. Re-warm in a crockpot or over low heat, stir frequently to keep the bottom from burning (or use a double boiler). You can also reheat in the oven, but that space is usually spoken for. Once the turkey comes out of the oven, it needs a little time to rest and carve. We use that time to heat things like sweet potato casserole and bread rolls in the oven, broccoli could be roasted then too. Also finish the gravy with turkey drippings during rest/carve phase. Most importantly, set the table early in the day. That used to be our biggest last-minute scramble![/quote]
