Thanksgiving

I once asked my brother Nathan what are the Thanksgiving recipes that have to be on his holiday table. Here’s his answer, verbatim:

“Turkey. Gravy. Mashed potatoes. Cranberry sauce FROM A CAN, any other sauce must only be in addition to this. Stuffing. Sweet potatoes. 8 pies. Those are all the requisites. Everything else is in addition.”

That pretty much sums it up! Follow those links to get my favorite of each of those categories. Enjoying looking through this list of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes!
