Now I can't stop thinking about Thanksgiving. Food to plan! \o/
Not sure if it'll just be my parents coming or if I'll be acquiring more people. I probably will at least farm one or two of these out to my mom, although it's really not a whole lot to manage as long as you start cooking things a day or two ahead.
ETA: If you're interested in the turkey brine (basically, it's a bit like marinading the turkey), head this way.
- Turkey. I'm thinking about grilling it (after brining it courtesy of Alton Brown.) It'll free up the oven. Wonder if I have enough propane. Note to self: get instant-read thermometer.
- Stuffing. WITHOUT CELERY. Celery = evil.
- Potatoes. Dunno yet. That hashbrown casserole thing is yummy, but heavy. Maybe it'll just be mashed potatoes.
- Veggies. I need to find a good vegetable recipe. (I can't stand green bean casserole.) Or I can throw corn in a bowl.
- Cranberries. I'll do homemade. WAY better than the blob that looks like a can when you empty it out. And really fairly easy.
- Bread. Tube crescent rolls! How can you not have tube crescent rolls?
- Desert. A friend has a pumpkin bar recipe that she swears is better than pumpkin pie. Might do that.
- Wine. Yes.
