Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing and sweet potatoes are staples every year. (The last 2 years we've also had a venison roast, but you can't always count on that.) We add in different things to round it out. This year, someone is bringing homemade mac n' cheese and someone else is bringing banana nut bread. There'll be a green vegetable and rolls. Pumpkin and apple pie.Alinouveau2 wrote: »Ok Americans.... favourite Thanksgiving recipes or traditions please?
I offered to host our neighbour who is here working at the US consulate (his wife is away visiting her mom so he's solo) and another American friend is excited to come since his wife is Canadian and they don't do two Thanksgivings. Then there's our other friends who we invite to all special meals. So I kinda want to do traditional American dishes although I'll add come Canadiana with butter tarts.
All this plus homemade cranberry sauce using orange juice instead of water.
And then you put it into a cylinder shaped mold?

My family never had mac and cheese for Thanksgiving!
Maybe I would have been happier to be there.
But, yeah, green bean casserole, yams, mashed potatoes, sometimes this creamed spinach/corn souffle/baby carrots concoction, pumpkin snd lemon meringue pies...1 -

I’m southern and mac n cheese comes to every occasion. 😅
Side note: I don’t like green bean casserole but it’s probably bc of the onion bits.0 -

I wasn't big on the mushroom part. It was always the texture but sometimes the green beans were the only time I liked vegetables. I feel like we can't really consider that other concoction actual vegetables.
Aaaaaaalso, I should probably stick to the chit chat area of the forums. My posts tend to get deleted or reported when I try to help in other areas.3 -
I got a small turkey today for my American Thanksgiving in Canada. The store only had small ones so I got a small ham too. We'll do stuffing, mashed potatoes, cauliflower in cheese sauce and I feel like I need to do a green bean casserole but I'll do it from scratch cause I refuse to use a tin of soup. I'm debating a small mac n cheese only because I've been wanting some for awhile now and I have a crap ton of macaroni but they would mean two cheesy dishes....can there ever be too much cheese?1

Lol I put cheese in my green bean casserole and also bacon - so short answer is no you can’t not have too much cheese or bacon ever

So I have friends who are planning on doing a new years eve 5k. They want me to do it. The think is while I'm probably the sportiest out of the group I'm probably the most injured so running cripples me. Sure I could do it but I'm not sure I want to deal with the pain and last week's knee locking and collapsing I think I need to be gentle on my joints1
