    Default What Is Your Favorite Thanksgiving Recipe?

    ​This is my favorite Thanksgiving recipe. If nothing else were served, I'd be happy.

    What is your favorite?

    Scalloped Sweet Potatoes and Apples



    4 baked, peeled, and sliced Sweet Potatoes (small to medium size)
    4 Apples, peeled and sliced
    1 cup firmly packed Brown Sugar (reduce or eliminate when using topping)
    ½ cup Butter
    1 teaspoon Salt

    Put alternate layers of potatoes and apples in a 9” x 13” baking pan. Sprinkle each layer with brown sugar. Dot with butter and sprinkle with salt.

    Topping-optional


    ¾ cup packed brown sugar
    1 cup chopped pecans
    1/3 cup melted butter
    1/3 cup flour

    In a mixing bowl combine the topping ingredients and mix well. Sprinkle over top of the casserole.

    Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven until the apples are soft (about 45 minutes). Uncover and bake for about ten minutes longer.

    Serves 6 to 8

    Sounds good. I always have to make my cranberry relish that uses Pinot Noir. Everybody loves it.

    I love roasted carrots - put the contents of a large bag of baby carrots into an oiled roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, stir, and roast at 375 for about 20 min. When done, drizzle with maple syrup and serve.

    I think my favorite is Carrot Souffle. It's almost dessert. Everyone enjoys it.

    Good Morning....Here is the recipe for the carrot souffle...

    1 1/2 pounds peeled carrots (about 9)
    1 1/2 cups sugar (I know, lot of sugar)
    1 1/2 tsp baking powder
    1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
    1/3 cup bread flour
    4 eggs
    1/2 cup melted butter
    1 T powdered sugar
    Steam carrots until extra soft (about 30 min.)...I cut them into 2 inch pieces
    Drain well
    While carrots are still warm, transfer to a large bowl and mash with potato masher, then add sugar, baking powder, vanilla and flour with electric mixer. Beat slowly until mixed then increase speed to medium and beat 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, add eggs...one at a time...beating after each addition. Gradually add melted butter. Spray 1 1/2-2 quart casserole with Pam. Pour mixture into casserole. Bake about 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees or till top is golden brown. I usually let it cool a bit and them sprinkle with powdered sugar. It says "serve immediately" but that never happens. This is from Piccadilly Restaurant .

    DH & I are vegetarian, so our normal Thanksgiving meal (when I'm cooking) is a big ol' pot of mushroom barley soup. That's what we had yesterday, with enough leftovers to fill nine 1.5 pint Mason jars for the freezer. Yum!

    I put the very last of the garden carrots and onions in it, which I'm going to claim makes it extra special. All of the seasonings in it came from the garden as well, except for the salt!
