Now that leftovers are all gone I thought I would post some images of my Thanksgiving dishes. Am already feeling a slight nostalgia for the day that was…
There were cheddar herb biscuits:
Cornbread and sausage stuffing:
Sweet potato casserole:
Brussels sprouts and carmelized shallot hash:
Cranberry-apple chutney:
The star of the day, salted herb roast turkey:
Pecan pie with cream cheese crust:
Pumpkin cream pie with (homemade) gingersnap crust:
And cranberry brie pie:
There was also gingersnap ice cream but I somehow managed to miss taking a photo of it… but I can assure you it was quite good.
It dawned on me when I opened a can of chiles for the corn pudding that it was the first and only can I opened in the entire preparation the meal– everything else was made from scratch from the chicken stock to the pumpkin puree to the pie crusts. A very homemade Thanksgiving, indeed.
Hope everyone had a great holiday!
This week I will be traveling to New York for work so my posts will likely be images of what I am eating while there. Will return with regular programming (aka recipes) next week.
Woah! Save me a seat at the table next year. Just don’t tell my mom
Please share that cream cheese crust recipe!
