We had a quite Thanksgiving w/ just Kris' mom and brother so we had a ton of leftovers. I decided to do a leftover party this year so last night we had a few friends over and we combined a bunch of leftovers. It was so much fun and this way we got to have a Thanksgiving meal w/ our friends as well. Definitely a tradition I want to keep going.
I love to cook for Thanksgiving, here is what I made this year.
My MNL brings the turkey and stuffing so I make all of the sides.
Swee Potato casserole. I double the crunchy topping. Nobody eats it for Thanksgiving but I love it so made it this year and it definitely got eaten at our leftover party.
Deluxe mashed potatoes: I mix in cream cheese, sour cream, and chives-top w/ butter and paprika and bake them. Very good
Corn souffle: Super easy-1 can of corn, 1 can of creamed corn, 8 oz. of sour cream, 1 box of cornbread mix, 1 egg and bake at 350 for 45 min. Definitely a favorite.
Green bean casserole: I just do the traditional cambells recipe but a friend brought over a recipe that is fresh green beans w/ a garlic sauce and homemade croutons on top. I need to get this recipe because it is VERY good.
Brandied orange and cranberry sauce: This recipe has orange zest, OJ, lemon juice, fresh cranberries, sugar and brandy. Kris does not like cranberry sauce but he loves this one!!!!
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dessert: This takes a little bit more time but it is worth it. I love this recipe. I made it for the first time this year but will definitely make this every year.
If anybody wants more detailed recipes let me know and I will get them to you.
