Good god, I am not feeling at all ready for Thanksgiving this year. It sort of snuck up on me in this crazy whirlpool of everything else to do (mainly work and moving/packing) that does not include making Thanksgiving menu lists as efficiently as I normally would.. The warm weather has not helped things either – it certainly does not feel like late November outside.
However, the triple apple cake is ready to be made! The Russ & Daughters treats and the heritage turkey have been ordered. And there is a plethora of tried and tested exciting options to choose from for all your other Thanksgiving appetizing needs.
I hope that these seasonal favorites provide some holiday table inspiration for all of you too. Now let’s get to planning that Thanksgiving menu!
To Start
Acorn squash with chili-tarragon butter (serve with a little labneh or rich yogurt)
Butternut squash hummus (serve with homemade pita or vegetable chips)
In the middle
Roast chicken with lemon and endive
Multicultural turkey meatballs
Roasted brussels sprouts (with pear and tarragon mustard)
Finish
That’s a nice round of up for a harvest celebration. I hope all your Thanksgiving preparations go smoothly.
Thank you, Teresa! I am so behind!
