[quote=Anonymous]I would do a turkey and brine it with traditional herbs. You can buy the brine mix. This will help it be moist. Do the French style masked potatoes that use a ton f butter and cream and just salt. Midwesterners love to douse stuff in butter. Buy the gravy or make it. It’s easy to make but you have to pay attention when you do the roux and then add in the juices. Buy dinner rolls, basic soft ones. Have some cans of jellied cranberry sauce. Give the seniors one bland gross traditional flavorless side dish. It could be green bean casserole made with canned soup or sweet potatoes loaded with butter and brown sugar with a broiled marshmallow topping. For the other sides go tasty! Honey glazed grilled carrots, carmelized brussel sprouts, a Persian style wild rice side, salad with cranberries and goat cheese, a spiced up butternut squash soup etc etc. Do as many or few as you want.
