sounds delicious!
my family always has cajun food, but fi's mom cooks turkey, mashed sweet potatoes, mashed regular potates, cranberry sauce, 2 types of stuffing, rice, green beans, carrots, bread, and lots of different pies.
Um. Turkey. What else is there??
Yes. Turkey w/vegetables roasted in the oven. With gravy made from the roasted turkey juice. And crescent rolls. I could care less about everything else.
Did I mention Turkey?
We had our first turkey of the season yesterday. hehe.
P.S. Put your turkey in a brine for 24 hrs beforehand. Shhh. It's our little secret. Creates the most tender turkey EVER.
We've already had Thanksgiving here in Canada, but I want to play anyways!
We usually have:
- Turkey
- Stuffing
- Mashed potatoes
- Carrots
- Squash (mashed)
- Gravy
- Cranberry sauce
- Sometimes turnip (mashed)
- LOTS OF WINE :)
Looks good, but you missed the most important item: GRAVY
Thanksgivings not Thanksgiving without gravy! ;-)
This is about the usual for us:
The only thing I contribute are the desserts. This year I will be making (all from scratch I may add):
That's it!
like Ottawabride we already had turkey day we do
If my uncle B had been around this year he would have brought pulled pork, corn on the cob, a garden salad and some sort of decadent cheesecake, but he was on the east coast & we missed his cooking dearly!
now I am hungry..
@Miss Peach Tree: Here's the link for the recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/sweet-potato-balls-recipe/index.html

This will be my first time cooking a Thanksgiving dinner, and I just want to see what everyone usually cooks! I didn't really have any traditions growing up (didn't even have turkey every year), so I'm trying to do a pretty traditional Thanksgiving this year, but if there's something unique that you/your family cooks, I want to hear about that too!
Here's what's on my menu:
