I think my favorite food though for Thanksgiving has to be the stuffing, mashed potatoes, and of course the cranberry sauce! So i have listed a few recipes that I think Even i can make. For thanksgiving I really want to make the cranberry sauce. Its a fruit that can be eaten almost anytime but tastes the best on TDday. :) Check out my Top 5!
Number 1: Gobble Gobble - Emeril's Big Bird with Giblet Gravy
Emeril always gets it right. The minute my folks discovered this amazing turkey recipe it has become a quick favorite. The way its made makes it tender, juicy, and flavorful. I dream of it every year!
Number 2: The Stuffing!
Cant have turkey without stuffing. Ok i know what you are thinking...Stover's? need i say more? Well for us beginners..i would stay run to the store and pick up a box and throw it on the stove. But for the more specialized cooks..try this one on for size.. The Right Stuff..ing
Number 3: Oh the Sauce, the lovely cranberry sauce!
Now we have hit my favorite dish. The delicious cranberry sauce. Whether its straight from a can or cooked on the stove i love it!!! I LOVE IT! :) For some reason when you combine the turkey with the cranberry sauce it hits your palate at just the right spot. I can't explain the chemistry of it but it really works. Here is another recipe that I am going to attempt next thursday. We have at it before and it is just delightful! CRANBERRY DELIGHT!
Number 4: Garlicy Mashed Potatoes..YUMMMM
OK now i am getting super hungry! AND i already ate dinner! WOOOHOOO! For mashed potatoes I really think that the garlic makes them extra special. If you are feeling lazy you can always buy one of those boxes of mashed potatoes that you just add water too but if you are a little bolder I DEFINETLY suggest this sumptious treat.
Chive and Garlic Mashed Potatoes! One more thing, I know this isnt in the recipe but you can also add some extra chunks of baked garlic to make it even better. :)
Number 5: DESSERT...Apple Pie
For this dessert you can either buy one at Costco..easy way out! Or try out this amazing recipe...Double Crust Apple Pie If i have time i am going to try and make this as well.
Try out some of these recipes and let me know how they turn out! I am going to be making the cranberry sauce, garlic mashed potatoes..and perhaps the apple pie. Dont ya just love Thanksgiving? Its a foodaholics dream day! lol
