In addition to (or instead of) the bird, listed below are several recipes that work well for Thanksgiving.
As for us… We’re looking forward to my sister and her family coming up this year. Here’s what I’ll be preparing. And in case it’s helpful for those with food sensitivities – Everything on my menu happens to be dairy and gluten free except for the sherry in the soup which mostly evaporates during cooking or can be omitted – just use extra veggie broth or another substitution – and the feta cheese in the salad (substitute sliced avocado or omit it entirely).

WEDNESDAY:
BROWN-RICE-STUFFING (The link actually takes you to my “stuffed peppers” recipe, but I often omit the peppers and just make the stuffing on it’s own – soooo good.) I’m going to have to double-post it with a different name so that people looking for a good, whole-grain stuffing can find it.

(My african ground-nut stew was a little juicier than usual, as just before I was about to take the picture, I poured myself a glass of water and ended up spilling it right onto my plate!) Oh well =)
THURSDAY:
