Did you eat anything new

[ Edited ]

or was Thanksgiving meals your old favorites? 

 

I had never eaten a Creamed Onion Casserole.  Never heard of one but it was delicious!

It was the tiny pearl onions in a sauce with a breadcrumb topping.   I've requested the recipe.

 I'm not much of an experimenter.  I had the old favorites.

Same here.  I'm very much NOT food-adventurous.  I cook all of it, so I made the same stuff I usually do.  Since the husband loves these dishes, I'm happy with it. Smiley Happy

I tried three new dishes this year and they were all a hit.  Wild Rice, Bacon and Apple stuffing, Corn Pudding (especially delish), and Sweet Potatoe Casserole.

Re: Did you eat anything new

I ate at a friend's house. One of the dishes served was a sweet potato casserole.  I only know that it was topped with brown sugar, bananas and pecans.  This is not the exact recipe.  It was very good but much too sweet for me. If that makes any sense.  It could have been called dessert. LOL.  The rest of the food was traditional and delicious!

Yes, I had brined turkey and it was very good, SonIL made it,  I was so surprised he even knew about it.

Love that!  I've been brining for several years now and, as much as sometimes I'd like to lighten up my workload, I cannot see myself going back.

 

I was just telling my husband yesterday that I've heard/read some folks saying that it makes the turkey salty.  He said 'well, yours is never the least bit salty'.    I said 'I know!'.  hehe Smiley Happy    Ya just rinse it really well and it's not all about the salt, anyway.
