I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year, and am looking for a diabetic-friendly dessert recipe that does not taste like cardboard. The ones I've tried so far have been very bland and boring. It does not have to be easy. I generally make everything from scratch.
Thanks for your help!I need a Thanksgiving dessert recipe for my diabetic dad that actually tastes good?
DIABETIC DESSERT
1/3 c. butter, softened
1/4 c. brown sugar substitute
2 tsp. liquid sweetener or 1/3 c. Sprinkle Sweet
1 egg
1 1/3 c. flour
3 tbsp. cocoa
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. soda
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. skim milk
Combine butter, brown sugar substitute, diabetic sweetener, and egg. Beat 2 minutes at high speed. Add remaining ingredients and blend 2 minutes at low speed. Pour into 8 inch square pan and sprinkle with chopped nuts. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. Frost with diabetic whip, if desired.
DIABETIC KEY LIME PIE
1 (13 oz.) can evaporated skim milk
2 tsp. vanilla
2 env. plain gelatin
1/3 c. lime juice, strain if fresh
1 c. boiling water
20 pkgs. Equal
Zest of 3 limes, grated rind
Green food coloring
Combine milk and vanilla. Freeze for 30 minutes. Combine gelatin and juice in a blender. Let set for 1 minute. Add boiling water and Equal; blend until smooth. Chill about 45 minutes. Put frozen milk into a small chilled bowl and whip frozen milk until stiff. Fold in lime zest. Slowly add the gelatin mixture to whipped milk. Spoon into 2 cooked pie shells or you may use a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Garnish with lime slices and zest.I need a Thanksgiving dessert recipe for my diabetic dad that actually tastes good?
Cheryl B covered most of what I was going to say but all the Diabetics I know that love the Splenda pumpkin pie don't use a crust since flour is a problem for a lot of diabetics.
If you really want it to have a crust, try coconut flour made by Bob's Red Mill. It doesn't impact the blood sugar like wheat does. Some local grocery stores carry the Bob's Red Mill products and can order it for you if they don't have it. I know we are getting close to Thanksgiving but our local Fred Meyer store ordered it for me and I had it in less than a week.
http://www.kraftfoods.com/jello/recipe.a鈥?/a> These are recipes made with sugar free jello pudding. http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/19鈥?/a> Here is one with pumpkin as well.
I got a really good pumpkin pie recipe from the kraft website it uses pudding and cool whip instead of sugar and eggs.
You take the sugar free vanilla pudding (two boxes) add one cup of milk and then mix in the can of pumpkin pie mix and half of the cool whip. You cook it for about a half hour. When it's cool top it with the rest of the cool whip and serve.
The splenda website is great. I use it a lot. Here is a Pumpkin Pie recipe. There are several others too, if this one doesn't work for you.

Sugar Free Puddings, Sugar Free Pies. Pumpkin Pie
Call the nearest Old folks home, They have alot of diabetics and him sure their chef wouldnt mind giving you ideas.
My dad was diabetic and every year I made him a sugar free pumkin pie. He loved it...in fact most people ate it too even though they didn't have to.
I suggest going to the Equal website, it was an Equal Pumpkin Pie recipe that I used. IF you can't find it...e-mail me and I'll send you some recipes. (My dad is gone now so I'd love to share them with someone who's dad could enjoy them) I also have a great peach cobbler recipe I modified myself to make for him...along with other recipes... A lot was hit and miss, but I worked with it so he could enjoy the holidays too as he was always a sweet lover but once he became diabetic he could only eat sugar free items.

Thanksgiving recipe ideas?
This will be me and my husband's first ';married'; Thanksgiving. My parents are cooking Thanksgiving dinner but I want to bring a side dish and a dessert. I'm a new cook so nothing to gourmet. Any ideas and recipes will be appreciated. Thanks alot!Thanksgiving recipe ideas?
Go to allrecipes.com
Great site and users review and leave comments on the recipes so you get some terrific information beforehand.
They have tons of Thanksgiving recipes!
We too go my parents. I usually do the ham, bring the green bean casserole, the sweet potatoes (easy, get a can, cut them into bite size pieces, a few pats of real butter on top, a couple handfuls of brown sugar and top with marshmallows, all in a casserole dish), I make a carmel/apple pie and usually my fudge. Oh and deviled eggs (also easy, boil your eggs, peel when cool, cut in half putting the yolks in a big bowl and the egg whites on a tray. Smash the egg yolks, a food processor works great, add mayo or miracle whip, prepared mustard, salt and pepper, just keep tasting until it is how you want it. Put that yolk mixture in a piping bag or a plastic sandwich bag with a tip cut off and pipe into the egg white halfs. This always goes over great!)
OK, this is a HUGE answer for me, because with these two points I go to Level 6! Thanks!Thanksgiving recipe ideas?
My favorite side dish and dessert for Thanksgiving dinner:
Cornbread Salad

My brothers girlfriend is coming over for thanksgiving and I need help. Links, tips, recipes, anything will help! Thank youHelp...I need recipes or links for Vegan thanksgiving meals?
There is a fantastic recipe on CookingLight.com for quinoa stuffing (Link: http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe%26amp;recipe_id=1545726 ). IT is just amazing and everyone there will love it. To be vegan friendly, you have to use vegetable broth and earth balance in place of the butter. This has become a staple in our house where I am the only vegan...
If you do a google search for vegan pumpkin pie, recipes abound. Just make sure if you buy a pre-made crust, that none of the ingredients came from animals. I would do this by phone with the brother or his girlfriend if I was you...It is always nice to be included in dessert...Help...I need recipes or links for Vegan thanksgiving meals?

IT is just amazing and everyone there will love it. To be vegan friendly, you have to use vegetable broth and earth balance in place of the butter. This has become a staple in our house where I am the only vegan...
If you do a google search for vegan pumpkin pie, recipes abound. Just make sure if you buy a pre-made crust, that none of the ingredients came from animals. I would do this by phone with the brother or his girlfriend if I was you...It is always nice to be included in dessert...Help...I need recipes or links for Vegan thanksgiving meals?
peta2.com, peta.com, goveg.com, vegcooking.com, the list is endless. a must-buy is tofurkey, which is a vegan alternative to the traditional turkey. hope that helps. %26lt;3 DeegeMonster
www.vegweb.com is a vegetarian website with lots of recipes. There's a section of holiday dishes on the site.
Hope this helps:

I have one kid who LOVES green bean casserole (ick, yuk, patooie!) but I make it for her......I'm a scratch cook/baker so opening a can KILLS ME but for her, I do it,lol....
I have four kids..counting the hubby, five....and they all suck down faster than a Hoover on steriods...along with the dreaded green bean casserole.....
Turkey, sausage, fruit (cranberries %26amp; apples) %26amp; herb stuffing(my family's recipe), gravy, 'smashed' potaotes, sweet potatoes casserole, sweet corn, corn bread, buttermilk biscuits,home made rye bread, cranberry sauce, carrots,turnips or roasted acorn squash, 'punkin' pie,apple pie, gingerbread cookies.
I do it all from scratch...except the green bean casserole-my one lone sacrifice for my child..lol Happy Turkey Day.What recipes are your kids favorite at Thanksgiving?
Pink Sh!t. My sister, bless her sole, makes the worse cranberry sauce in the world. It has whole cranberries, nuts and horseradish in it! After three years, I was asked to tell her how we make fun of her making this. She knows, but mom likes it. She makes it and knows that it's a complete waste of time and money. So, now any newcomer at the table just HAS to try the Pink Sh!t, then we all have a good laugh.
No one eats it, but we all laugh about it. It's got to be the best recipe in the world to bring family together like that, even tho it sucks to eat it. What recipes are your kids favorite at Thanksgiving?
I guess I am a kid...I'm almost 17, but all the younger kids seem to like this homemade pumpkin bread that I prepare. I remember my younger cousins feeling grossed out at the thought of eating canned pumpkin, but when they tasted the bread they couldn't believe that it was so good!
well, we usually go out ot eat. No fuss, no mess and no leftovers.
BUT, the bird,of course.

PLEASE HELP. I NEED SOME RECIPES FOR QUICK AND EASY FINGER FOODS FOR MY FRIENDS WEDDING RECEPTION. NOT ONLY IS IT ON THANKSGIVING AFTERNOON, MY PARENTS WILL BE IN TOWN FROM OHIO VISITING US FOR 2 WEEKS. I NEED TO DO THANKSGIVING DINNER PLUS FINGER FOODS.

I also made some yellow color, used food coloring, it never changes the taste.I need some finger food recipes for friends thanksgiving day wedding?
U COULD DO A QUACAMOLE DIP WITH PUMPERNICKLE BREAD, CHEESE BALLS, VEGGIE TRAYS CHEESE AND CRACKERS COLD MEAT PLATES IF U NEED STUFF LIKE THAT SEARCH THE WEB THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF STUFF
Since you've already got lots of great ideas for reception food, I'll throw this out-- why don't you have a nice dinner out with your parents instead of cooking it yourself. Or, have a brunch Thanksgiving meal late morning-midday. You could incorporate some traditional Thanksgiving components into the meal-- like turkey sausage (the gourmet/specialty kind, not the kind people get because it's healthier), pumpkin bread (maybe even make french toast with it), maybe a cranberry cocktail if you're drinkers.
Good luck. It sounds like a busy and potentially very fun day.
This is soooooo easy:
Combine 1 jar of grape jelly and 1 jar of chili sauce (This comes in a jar like ketchup NOT hot dog chili!)
Stir well.
Add several packages of Little Smokies (small smoked sausages)
Heat thoroughly
Yummy!
But are you sure you have to cook Thanksgiving dinner?????
Maybe you can do dinner on the weekend before or after. I don't know about you, but I could never fix food for a wedding reception and cook TG dinner on the same day!!
You can also make little pumpkin tarts, a bit more work involved.
Buy tiny tart shells already made. Cream cheese and sugar mixture in the bottom, canned pumpkin %26amp; Coolwhip mixture on top. Top w whipped topping and sprinkle w cinnimon. They are pretty and very fall looking.
Also, don't forget to check Martha Stewart's websit or magazine.
cut up in small pieces, red peppers, green peppers, corn if u want, and chicken pieces cubed. cook that in oil w. salt and pepper...stuff that in puff pastry shells. so easy and quick to do.
try
http://www.bettycrocker.com/Recipes/Appe鈥?/a>
and at the top you can do like cold dips ect and they have recipes hope that helped!!
bacon wrapped scallops
i think turkey salad made as you make chicken salad with cranberry jelly on bite size bread: spiced ham on rye and cut small. miniature rolls and deviled eggs and relishes and fruit on a pic and a variety of cheeses
A wedding on Thanksgiving? A day when people like to be with their families, eat turkey, relax and the guys watch football? The anniversary is not going to have it's own special day? So later when they have kids and such ddoing the traditional thanksgiving a romantic celebration for the anniversary is out the window. I suppose its arranged at this point. I just can't believe that some people don't think things through. Just a thought. Anyway keep it simple as its thanksgiving. Deviled eggs, sausage rolls, etc. always go over.
Here are a couple of my family's favorites:
Chicken/Bacon Wraps
Buy the fajita meat that comes prepackaged. Cut off excess fat, and cut into bite size pieces (raw). Cut a package of bacon in half. Wrap each bite of chicken with half a strip of bacon, and one almond. Bake for one hour on 350. It may smoke a lot, so be prepared. Serve with a honey mustard.
Cream Cheese Dip
Buy a stick of cream cheese. (looks more like a block really). Cut in half length wise, and then cut across making several pats of cream cheese. Pour over this half a cup each of worcestire sauce and soy sauce. Top with green onion. Serve with Triscuits.
Salmon Wheels
Buy smoked salmon. Smear cream cheese and roll up. cut into bite size wheels and serve just like that or with mini bagels.
Stuffed Jalapenos or Mushrooms
Cut up bacon into tiny slices and fry up, drain.. mix with a cup of mayo and a package of shredded cheddar cheese, and a can of water chestnuts. Buy a can of jalapenos. Stuff jalapenos with mixture and serve.
Another Stuffing
Buy frozen cocktail shrimp. Thaw and mix with cream cheese, green onion, a package of hidden valley ranch dressing MIX.. not the liquid. It's okay to shred up the shrimp. Stuff this mixture in either jalapenos or mushroom caps and heat in oven til warm.
Spinach Dip served in King's Hawaiian Round Bread is awesome and easy. The recipe is on the package of Knorr's Vegetable Soup.
Hope some of that helps!
Just bring a bunch of Slim Jims, that'll teach these idiots not to ruin your Thanksgiving Day again
whats the budget for this reception. I just came from a really nice wedding where they had like a tea party finger food theme for the reception. They had a bunch of cold salads, shrimp cocktail and all these things made with Filo dough. They had cheese balls, crab puffs, pigs in a blanket, a huge fresh fruit display pineapple chunks, mango slivers, chocolate covered strawberries, seasonal fruits and even a little filo cups with a fruit compote and mini chocolate teramisu.
Take soft cream cheese, on top of this put pepper jelly, and wheat thins placed around the dish, not only real good, but a pretty dish. The pepper jelly I use, I made, it is green, but can buy in grocery stores, in red color. I also made some yellow color, used food coloring, it never changes the taste.I need some finger food recipes for friends thanksgiving day wedding?
U COULD DO A QUACAMOLE DIP WITH PUMPERNICKLE BREAD, CHEESE BALLS, VEGGIE TRAYS CHEESE AND CRACKERS COLD MEAT PLATES IF U NEED STUFF LIKE THAT SEARCH THE WEB THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF STUFF
Since you've already got lots of great ideas for reception food, I'll throw this out-- why don't you have a nice dinner out with your parents instead of cooking it yourself. Or, have a brunch Thanksgiving meal late morning-midday. You could incorporate some traditional Thanksgiving components into the meal-- like turkey sausage (the gourmet/specialty kind, not the kind people get because it's healthier), pumpkin bread (maybe even make french toast with it), maybe a cranberry cocktail if you're drinkers.
Good luck. It sounds like a busy and potentially very fun day.
This is soooooo easy:
Combine 1 jar of grape jelly and 1 jar of chili sauce (This comes in a jar like ketchup NOT hot dog chili!)
Stir well.
Add several packages of Little Smokies (small smoked sausages)
Heat thoroughly
Yummy!
But are you sure you have to cook Thanksgiving dinner?????
Maybe you can do dinner on the weekend before or after. I don't know about you, but I could never fix food for a wedding reception and cook TG dinner on the same day!!
You can also make little pumpkin tarts, a bit more work involved.
Buy tiny tart shells already made. Cream cheese and sugar mixture in the bottom, canned pumpkin %26amp; Coolwhip mixture on top. Top w whipped topping and sprinkle w cinnimon. They are pretty and very fall looking.
Also, don't forget to check Martha Stewart's websit or magazine.
cut up in small pieces, red peppers, green peppers, corn if u want, and chicken pieces cubed. cook that in oil w. salt and pepper...stuff that in puff pastry shells. so easy and quick to do.
try
http://www.bettycrocker.com/Recipes/Appe鈥?/a>
and at the top you can do like cold dips ect and they have recipes hope that helped!!
bacon wrapped scallops
i think turkey salad made as you make chicken salad with cranberry jelly on bite size bread: spiced ham on rye and cut small. miniature rolls and deviled eggs and relishes and fruit on a pic and a variety of cheeses
A wedding on Thanksgiving? A day when people like to be with their families, eat turkey, relax and the guys watch football? The anniversary is not going to have it's own special day? So later when they have kids and such ddoing the traditional thanksgiving a romantic celebration for the anniversary is out the window. I suppose its arranged at this point. I just can't believe that some people don't think things through. Just a thought. Anyway keep it simple as its thanksgiving. Deviled eggs, sausage rolls, etc. always go over.

I have made lemon squares since I was about 10, and they are always a hit. My receipe is at home, and I'm at work, but this receipe is almost exactly like mine. I always use fresh lemon juice and fresh lemon zest in the filling. It gives them an amazing flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter

2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix flour, butter and powdered sugar thoroughly. Press evenly into an ungreased 8 x 8 x 2 inch or 9 x 9 x 2 inch square pan. Make a little rim up the edges to hold in the filling. A quarter inch or so will do it. Bake 20 minutes.
Beat remaining ingredients about 3 minutes of until light and fluffy. Pour over the hot crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake about 25 minutes longer or until no imprint remains when touched lightly in the center. Remove from oven, sprinkle the extra powdered sugar on the top, if you like. Cool, cut into squares.

--Sliced cheese and cracker tray (mix and match is good for kids).
Desserts:
I have made lemon squares since I was about 10, and they are always a hit. My receipe is at home, and I'm at work, but this receipe is almost exactly like mine. I always use fresh lemon juice and fresh lemon zest in the filling. It gives them an amazing flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix flour, butter and powdered sugar thoroughly. Press evenly into an ungreased 8 x 8 x 2 inch or 9 x 9 x 2 inch square pan. Make a little rim up the edges to hold in the filling. A quarter inch or so will do it. Bake 20 minutes.
Beat remaining ingredients about 3 minutes of until light and fluffy. Pour over the hot crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake about 25 minutes longer or until no imprint remains when touched lightly in the center. Remove from oven, sprinkle the extra powdered sugar on the top, if you like. Cool, cut into squares.
your having thanksgiving dinner so you dont want to load up on snacks, keep it simple, cheese and sausages with crackers or spinach dip or hummus with veges / pita bread.
Dessert ideas, have pumpkin cheesecake or pecan pie. Make spice cupcakes or banana bread muffins pumpkin muffins whatever. Dont go crazy! THe dinner itself will be time consuming.
apple pie chesesee ball
Try visiting the foodnetwork.com, pillsbury.com, kraftfoods.com, and bettycrocker.com. I have tried several recipes from these sites and all were excellent.
Thanksgiving Feast:
Appetizers: veges and ranch dressing
assorted olives
crackers and cheese
Main Course: Turkey
Stuffing
Potatos and gravey
Peas and onions
Cranberry mold
Hot rolls and butter
Desserts: Pumpkin pie (Marie Callendars is great!)
Pecan Pie (see above)
Lemon bars
This is a wonderful dessert recipe. It's super easy and you can make it the day before. People rave about it and ask for the recipe all the time.
Pudding Fluff
2 cps Milk
2 sm box of Jell-o Instant Pudding any flavor you choose
16 oz container of Cool Whip
Graham Cracker or Oreo Cookie Crust
Put the milk in a mixing bowl, add the pudding mix. Whisk until blended, quickly fold in the Cool Whip. Scoop into the graham cracker or Oreo crust and refrigerate. This is also good frozen.
Cheesecake version, use a potato masher to blend 8oz of softened cream cheese into the milk before adding the pudding mix and use Vanilla pudding. I like layering the cream cheese version with chocolate. The Berry Topping below is real good over the cream cheese version.
Yummy Berry Topping
1 lb fresh strawberries, cleaned and cut up
1 can raspberry pie filling
Mix the fresh strawberries with the pie filling and serve it with the cheesecake, vanilla or chocolate versions. Great with a container of blackberries added in. Could also be used as a layer in the above option.

PLEASE HELP. I NEED SOME RECIPES FOR QUICK AND EASY FINGER FOODS FOR MY FRIENDS WEDDING RECEPTION. NOT ONLY IS IT ON THANKSGIVING AFTERNOON, MY PARENTS WILL BE IN TOWN FROM OHIO VISITING US FOR 2 WEEKS. I NEED TO DO THANKSGIVING DINNER PLUS FINGER FOODS.

The pepper jelly I use, I made, it is green, but can buy in grocery stores, in red color. I also made some yellow color, used food coloring, it never changes the taste.I need some finger food recipes for friends thanksgiving day wedding?
U COULD DO A QUACAMOLE DIP WITH PUMPERNICKLE BREAD, CHEESE BALLS, VEGGIE TRAYS CHEESE AND CRACKERS COLD MEAT PLATES IF U NEED STUFF LIKE THAT SEARCH THE WEB THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF STUFF
Since you've already got lots of great ideas for reception food, I'll throw this out-- why don't you have a nice dinner out with your parents instead of cooking it yourself. Or, have a brunch Thanksgiving meal late morning-midday. You could incorporate some traditional Thanksgiving components into the meal-- like turkey sausage (the gourmet/specialty kind, not the kind people get because it's healthier), pumpkin bread (maybe even make french toast with it), maybe a cranberry cocktail if you're drinkers.
Good luck. It sounds like a busy and potentially very fun day.
This is soooooo easy:
Combine 1 jar of grape jelly and 1 jar of chili sauce (This comes in a jar like ketchup NOT hot dog chili!)
Stir well.
Add several packages of Little Smokies (small smoked sausages)
Heat thoroughly
Yummy!
But are you sure you have to cook Thanksgiving dinner?????
Maybe you can do dinner on the weekend before or after. I don't know about you, but I could never fix food for a wedding reception and cook TG dinner on the same day!!
You can also make little pumpkin tarts, a bit more work involved.
Buy tiny tart shells already made. Cream cheese and sugar mixture in the bottom, canned pumpkin %26amp; Coolwhip mixture on top. Top w whipped topping and sprinkle w cinnimon. They are pretty and very fall looking.
Also, don't forget to check Martha Stewart's websit or magazine.
cut up in small pieces, red peppers, green peppers, corn if u want, and chicken pieces cubed. cook that in oil w. salt and pepper...stuff that in puff pastry shells. so easy and quick to do.

bacon wrapped scallops
i think turkey salad made as you make chicken salad with cranberry jelly on bite size bread: spiced ham on rye and cut small. miniature rolls and deviled eggs and relishes and fruit on a pic and a variety of cheeses
A wedding on Thanksgiving? A day when people like to be with their families, eat turkey, relax and the guys watch football? The anniversary is not going to have it's own special day? So later when they have kids and such ddoing the traditional thanksgiving a romantic celebration for the anniversary is out the window. I suppose its arranged at this point. I just can't believe that some people don't think things through. Just a thought. Anyway keep it simple as its thanksgiving. Deviled eggs, sausage rolls, etc. always go over.
Here are a couple of my family's favorites:
Chicken/Bacon Wraps
Buy the fajita meat that comes prepackaged. Cut off excess fat, and cut into bite size pieces (raw). Cut a package of bacon in half. Wrap each bite of chicken with half a strip of bacon, and one almond. Bake for one hour on 350. It may smoke a lot, so be prepared. Serve with a honey mustard.
Cream Cheese Dip
Buy a stick of cream cheese. (looks more like a block really). Cut in half length wise, and then cut across making several pats of cream cheese. Pour over this half a cup each of worcestire sauce and soy sauce. Top with green onion. Serve with Triscuits.
Salmon Wheels
Buy smoked salmon. Smear cream cheese and roll up. cut into bite size wheels and serve just like that or with mini bagels.
Stuffed Jalapenos or Mushrooms
Cut up bacon into tiny slices and fry up, drain.. mix with a cup of mayo and a package of shredded cheddar cheese, and a can of water chestnuts. Buy a can of jalapenos. Stuff jalapenos with mixture and serve.
Another Stuffing
Buy frozen cocktail shrimp. Thaw and mix with cream cheese, green onion, a package of hidden valley ranch dressing MIX.. not the liquid. It's okay to shred up the shrimp. Stuff this mixture in either jalapenos or mushroom caps and heat in oven til warm.
Spinach Dip served in King's Hawaiian Round Bread is awesome and easy. The recipe is on the package of Knorr's Vegetable Soup.
Hope some of that helps!
Just bring a bunch of Slim Jims, that'll teach these idiots not to ruin your Thanksgiving Day again
whats the budget for this reception. I just came from a really nice wedding where they had like a tea party finger food theme for the reception. They had a bunch of cold salads, shrimp cocktail and all these things made with Filo dough. They had cheese balls, crab puffs, pigs in a blanket, a huge fresh fruit display pineapple chunks, mango slivers, chocolate covered strawberries, seasonal fruits and even a little filo cups with a fruit compote and mini chocolate teramisu.myspace images

I do a broccoli rice dish. It only contains 5 ingredients and is really easy to make.
1 cup of minute rice
1 can of mushroom stems and pieces
1 can of chicken noodle soup *
1-8 oz box of chopped broccoli
8 slices Kraft American cheese**
Cook the rice like directions on the box. Drain the mushroom stems and pieces then put it in a casserole dish and add the rice. Add the chicken noodle soup. Cook the broccoli and drain it add it to the mixture. Then put the 8 slices of cheese on top and melt it about 10 minutes in the microwave. Stir it all together well.
* I don't use Campbell's chicken noodle soup because it makes it too watery. Get like Great Value from Walmart.
** If you use other cheese than Kraft it will make it too watery also, except if you substitute Velveeta cheese instead.myspace images

I do a broccoli rice dish. It only contains 5 ingredients and is really easy to make.
1 cup of minute rice
1 can of mushroom stems and pieces
1 can of chicken noodle soup *
1-8 oz box of chopped broccoli
8 slices Kraft American cheese**
Cook the rice like directions on the box. Drain the mushroom stems and pieces then put it in a casserole dish and add the rice. Add the chicken noodle soup. Cook the broccoli and drain it add it to the mixture. Then put the 8 slices of cheese on top and melt it about 10 minutes in the microwave. Stir it all together well.
* I don't use Campbell's chicken noodle soup because it makes it too watery. Get like Great Value from Walmart.
** If you use other cheese than Kraft it will make it too watery also, except if you substitute Velveeta cheese instead.

I really like roasted vegetables. I love roasted brussels sprouts or you could do a mix of roasted root vegetables - Slice up new potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, parsnips, fennel bulbs,onion, shallots, carrots. Mix with melted butter or olive oil, season with salt, pepper and thyme and roast at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until all vegetables are fork tender.
Epicurious has a recipe this year for a cosmopolitan cranberry sauce - made with fresh cranberries, vodka and grand marnier that I am planning to do for sure:
http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/v…
I also like fennel - it is an bit unusual and tastes great sliced raw and made into a salad or roasted with onion and garlic.
Good luck with your feast!Does anyone have insteresting ideas for Thanksgiving side dishes? I'm looking for some unusual recipes!?

I'm not sure of the full recipe, but here is the basics.
Cruble up ritz crackers and cover the bottom of a casserole dish with them.
Brush lightly with butter.
Mix the broccoli and velveta cheese and put it in the dish on top of the crackers.
Top with a light layer of the crubled crackers.
Bake until the broccoil and cheese have melted together and the crackers are toasted.

stuffing
I believe this Sage Cranberry Dressing is a bit unusual as stuffing recipes go, but it is a favorite side dish as well.
Preparation time: 12-14 minutes. Serves 8-10 (Makes enough to loosely stuff a 20 pound turkey).
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups diced celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 quarts dried cubed bread (for cornbread dressing, substitute cornbread for all or part of the bread in the recipe)
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup craisins (sun-dried cranberries)
1/4 cup chopped pecans, optional
1 cup cold chicken broth
Instructions:
Sauté the celery and onion lightly in the butter until tender but not browned; cool
Combine the bread and cooked vegetables in a large mixing bowl
Add the herbs, craisins, pecans and seasonings
Toss gently until all ingredients are well mixed
Add the stock a little at a time and mix the dressing lightly after each addition
Add just enough stock to make the dressing slightly moist, neither dry nor soggy
Correct seasoning
Place in a greased baking pan and bake at 375 degrees F until hot in the center (about 1 hour)
TA-DA! That’s it!
Just another note: If you use this dressing recipe to stuff poultry instead of baking the dressing separately, fill the bird loosely. Do not pack, as the stuffing expands during cooking.

I'm making chicken broth for thanksgiving recipes ..how do get the fat off it ...i usually just freeze it ?
and scrape it off ... you have any tips?I'm making chicken broth for thanksgiving recipes ..how do get the fat off it ...i usually just freeze it ?
I put it in the refrigerator. The fat will rise to the top, and all you have to do is scoop the fat out or pour the broth through a strainer.I'm making chicken broth for thanksgiving recipes ..how do get the fat off it ...i usually just freeze it ?
A speedy method is to throw some ice cubes in they'll help the fat to congeal quickly so you can scoop it off.

vegetarian recipes too? Yes, will be serving seafood on thanksgiving (have meat eaters coming and i think by serving seafood,i wont have to make 2 different versions of a meal, because everyone eats seafood who are coming)but other suggestions are welcome!Pescitarian thanksgiving recipes...?
Maybe if you do a platter of varied fish. That way everyone can help themselves. Some people get very 'picky' about what fish they like/dislike.
If you do a big platter of different types of fish-cod, salmon,oysters, clams, lobster, haddock, lemon sole, sardine, tuna etc.
Then in different plates/bowls on your serving table you could put potatoes, loads of varied vegetables and salad and then maybe some dressings at the end of the table.
This way, everyone gets to eat how much/how little and exactally what they like.
I don't have thanksgiving here but at Christmas and other holidays it can get a lil boring with meals just being served. I would much rather be able to make my 'own meal' by having different things to pick from.
Afterwards, you can always just make a dessert that you can serve to everyone. E.G- Peanut butter pie (satisfying and edible for vegetarians as its high in protein.)
Hope I was of some help to you, it was just a fun thought that might make everybodys' meal customized and more fun to eat.
Have Fun!
