Are There Any THANKSGIVING Treats That Can Be Shipped In The Mail?
I have some family members that are away at college, and wont be able to make it home for Thanksgiving. *sigh* Well, to cheer them up, I wanted to make some home made snacks and ship it to them. Obviously, it cant be something that has to be refridgerated, but are there any snacks that can be sent through the mail? Any ideas would be great, just as long as they are snacks that would remind them of Thanksgiving! Thanks!
Answer: Cookies! The fact that it will come around Thanksgiving will give them a clue. Cookies ALWAYS work at college.
Or Flaming Turkey Wings.
That's very sweet of you. If we couldn't go home for Thanksgiving, our Parents went on vacation.

What do vegetarians eat for THANKSGIVING?
I know Thanksgiving is a long time from now but theres nothing wrong with planning. Im a 15 yr old girl and Im the only one in my family whose a lacto vegetarian. What are some easy and inexpensive recipes for me to prepare for Thanksgiving?
Answer: Last year I tried a homemade tofu turkey for the first time and it was SO GOOD. I can't believe what I've been missing out on all these years. Here's a link to the recipe I used http://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipes/9679?section= I've made it twice, once with oregano in place of sage. I suggest oregano. I halved the recipe since it was just for two people, but I wouldn't suggest trying to make a single serving. The left overs are just too good!
If you're not a fan of tofu, I'd suggest making a squash main dish. Baked butternut squash halves with pistou sauce are amazing, and you can stuff the hollow at the bottom with mushrooms, rice, or veg-friendly stuffing.
If you don't like squash, just search the internet. There are plenty of amazing options, and if you don't find any you like Thanksgiving is just about the easiest day of the year to make a meal out of side dishes.
Speaking of side dishes, my family usually has stuffing (vegetarian variety), mashed potatoes or mashed sweet potatoes (if you like gravy, try making mushroom gravy), a raw veggie tray with pickles and olives, bread, corn on the cob or some other vegetable, and a casserole or two. And of course we have like six million different desserts.

How do i make a nice THANKSGIVING feast when I cant cook?
Ok Thanksgiving is next week, my original plan was to go home, but instead I am stuck on this island. I cant cook worth crap!!! Everything I attempt to cook I destroy somehow. I am originally from the south and I like southern food when it comes to Thanksgiving. What can I cook that isnt too complex, but yet tastes really good?
Answer: You can order Thanksgiving feast from Chicken Out.
Just don't buy processed foods. I don't eat anything from Kraft. Most process foods are genetically modified like soy, corn, and wheat. So I'd throw out those processed foods.

THANKSGIVING is very soon. What is your tradition and what will you be having for dinner on THANKSGIVING day?
We have dwindled down to a very small group. My brother is paranoid schizophrenic and he doesnt like to have anyone else but our family over, so we cant invite friends or "strays" (people who have no where to go) anymore because he gets really freaked out. Anyway, itll just be 4 of us.
For dinner we have the turkey with stuffing which my mom makes. She makes the gravy too. I make the sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole and butternut squash. We have rolls and olives, gherkin pickles, homemade cranberry sauce (which my mom makes), carrots and celery. These are all the relishes. I will make a deep dish apple pie and pumpkin pie; my mom will make her delicious pecan pies.
We say a prayer before we eat and then we dive in! I LOVE Thanksgiving. Its my favorite holiday. Christmas is my second favorite. I just love the warmth of the holiday. I wish that my brother didnt have such a hard time, but Im glad he is with us and we can only pray for him. Weve tried everything else.
I hope you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving...
Peace!
Answer: I wish your brother felt better about people coming over too because all that food sounds so good i think id show up!! Well, over the years ive realized that traditions change and thats just part of life. Its nice if you can keep them going, but sometimes just having the wonderful memories of past traditions and the fun of new ones can be just as great if you let it!
My dad used to be in charge of preparing our holiday meals and it was always so nice every year. I think he did it because his mom did it and he was trying to keep that going for us. Now that my dad is no longer with us and i have a new family we have our new little traditions.
For the past few years my husband and i have been on turkey duty and fry at least 3-4 turkeys for Thanksgiving. One is just for us, one is for the rest of the family on Thanksgiving, and the others are for friends who beg us to fry them one! We have a special seasoning/injection process and recipie that we use and the turkeys are always moist and juicy and FULL of cajun flavor! This has become our little family tradition and we always enjoy it and look forward to it.
The bottom line is that when it comes to traditions i think its all about being with the ones you care for the most. We make these traditions becasue they give us a chance to be with people we love and care about and give us an opportunity to make wonderful memories together.

1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp. salt

If using fresh sweet potatoes, prepare and cook: Wash, but do not pare. Heat enough salted water to cover potatoes (1/2 tsp. salt to 1 cup water) to boiling; add potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling; cook 30-35 minutes or until tender. Drain; slip off skins. Leave whole, slice or mash.
Heat oven to 350*. In small mixer bowl, combine sweet potatoes, sour cream, egg yolk, salt and mace; beat on medium speed until smooth.
Pour sweet potato mixture into buttered 1-quart casserole; top with marshmallows. Bake 30 minutes or until marshmallows are puffed and golden brown.

1 lb. fresh pork sausage
1/2 cup butter or margarine
2 large apples; peeled, cored and chopped

1/2 cup water
4 cups crumbled corn bread or 1 (8 oz.) pkg. corn bread stuffing mix
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning
1 (18-20 lb.) frozen ready-to-stuff turkey; thawed
1/2 cup butter or margarine
Salt
Pepper
Giblet Gravy (recipe follows)
1) In 10" skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned; breaking apart with fork. Stir in 1/2 cup butter, apples, onion and celery; cook until celery is tender, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add water; heat to boiling. Remove from heat. In large bowl, combine meat mixture with corn bread, pecans, parsley and poultry seasoning. Stir until well mixed.
2) Remove giblets and neck from inside turkey; reserve for gravy. Rinse turkey with running cold water; drain well. Spoon some stuffing lightly into neck cavity. Fold neck skin over stuffing; skewer closed. With turkey breast-side up, lift wings up toward neck, then fold under back of bird to balance it.
3) Spoon remaining stufffing lightly into body cavity. Fold skin over opening; skewer closed. Tie legs or fasten under metal clip. On rack in roasting pan, place turkey breast-side up. Brush skin with melted butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of meat between breast and thigh., not touching bone.
4) Roast uncovered, at 325* - 4 to 4 1/2 hours until thermometer reads 180* or thickest part of drumstick feels soft when pressed between thumb and forefinger protected by paper towels. Baste occasionally with pan drippings. When skin turns golden, cover loosely with tent of foil. Begin checking for doneness after 3 hours cooking time. Toward end of roasting, remove foil; brush turkey with drippings.
5) Remove turkey from oven; let stand 20 minutes for easier carving. Serve with Giblet Gravy.
(Note: If you don't want to stuff your turkey, you can make stuffing muffins: Coat 12-cup muffin pan with melted butter. Using ice cream scoop, fill and mound stuffing mixture into muffin cups. Bake at 375* until set and top is crisp, 20-30 minutes. Cool 15 minutes; transfer to platter to serve.)
GIBLET GRAVY:
Reserved giblets and neck from turkey
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tsp. salt
Water
Pan drippings from roast turkey
6 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1) While turkey is roasting, in 2-quart saucepan combine giblets, neck, celery, onion and salt. Add water to cover; over high heat, heat to boiling.
2) Reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 1-2 hours until giblets are tender. With slotted spoon, remove neck and giblets. Strain broth; discard celery and onion. Chop neck meat and giblets; set aside.
3) When turkey is done, pour pan drippings into 4-cup measure; let drippings stand until fat separates from meat juice.
4) Skim 1/3 cup fat from drippings; pour fat into 2-quart saucepan; set aside. Discard any fat remaining on drippings. Add strained giblet broth to drippings; add water if necessary to make 4 cups. Pour broth mixture into roasting pan; stir to loosen browned bits.
5) Stir flour into fat in saucepan. Over medium heat, cook until lightly browned and bubbling, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in broth mixture; cook until mixture boils, stirring constantly. Stir in reserved meat and giblets; heat through. Yields 4 cups.
"Herb Smashed Potatoes" - 8 servings
5 lbs. potatoes; peeled, cut into 1 1/2" chunks (10 cups)

2-3 tbsp. chopped fresh chives
2-3 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Butter (optional)
In large pot, combine potatoes with salted water to cover; bring to boil. Cook until tender, 12 minutes. Drain; return to pot.
Meanwhile, in separate pot over medium-low heat, combine 1 cup broth, onion, cheese and cream cheese; cook, stirring, until cheese melts and mixture begins to simmer. Stir into potatoes and mash, stirring in more broth if desired for creamier texture. Stir in remaining ingredients. Serve topped with butter, if desired.
"Green Beans with Smoked Bacon and Onions" - 8 servings
2 lbs. green beans; trimmed
2 1/4 tsp. salt
4 slices thick-cut smoked bacon; cut into 1" wide strips
1 medium onion; cut into 1" pieces
1) Blanch the beans: Prepare an ice bath. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil; add beans and 2 tsp. salt. Cook just until the beans turn bright green, about 7 minutes. Drain the beans and plunge them into the ice bath until they're cool. Remove beans from the bath; drain on a towel.
2) Cook the bacon: Add the bacon to a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook until golden brown and lightly crisp. Drain all but 2 tbsp. of the bacon fat.
3) Finish the beans: Add the blanched beans, onion pieces and remaining salt; toss to completely coat with the fat. Reduce heat to medium; cook until the beans are warmed through and the onions have softened, 4-5 minutes. Serve immediately.
"Cranberry Gelatin Salad" - 8 servings
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2 (3 oz.) pkg. cranberry-raspberry gelatin

How long does a THANKSGIVING drive from San Francisco to Phoenix take?
I am trying to decide if it is a bad idea to try and drive from San Francisco to Phoenix on the day before Thanksgiving. Google Maps says it will take 12 hours, which I am ok with.

Is there a route that wont go straight through LA? Please share your tips!

Answer: If you want some great recipes just go online.There are so many sites to check out for what ever your need may be. Here are a few of my favoirites: www.kraft.com., www.bettycrocker.com, www.foodnetwork.com, www.allrecipes.com., www.pastrywiz.com. These are just a few but all of them are wonderful. Most of them you can join for free and even start your own personal recipe box to make it even easier to get to your favorites and start cooking!! Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving. I also wanted to let you know that you can always boil and freeze your sweet potatoes for later use. Just remember to not over boil them and to cut them in pretty big chunks. Let cool before freezing. If all else fails pass some along to friends and co-workers, or even the local food bank!! : ) Good Luck!!
