ShoppingChick13 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 My favorite dish on Thanksgiving is my Dad's Mashed Potatoes. He uses Idaho Potatoes, a little bit of milk and a TON of butter (and salt and pepper to taste). One stick of butter when he's mashing the potatoes and then about half a stick of butter after he has mashed them, that he puts in the middle and covers with more mashed potatoes so when you take a scoop all of this melted butter comes pouring out! YUMMY!!!!! They are so simple and so good. Now when I make them I use a little half and half and Kerry Gold Irish Butter. My favorite day after meal is leftover Turkey cooked in a pan with leftover gravy and then poured over leftover Mashed Potatoes and Stuffing! My Mom's favorite is her stuffing. I do love it, but I gotta have Dad's Mashed Potatoes! What is your favorite dish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplej2002 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 My grandpa's homemade macaroni and cheese. It is SOOOO good. He loads it down with sharp cheddar cheese, eggs and milk and bakes it in the oven. There are never any left overs. It's the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntsmomie Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I love corn casserole! And stuffing. First time I'm cooking it this year, but following my mom's way...hope it turns out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tn20 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Ooh, I would have to say that my favorite thing to eat on Thanksgiving is our Bourbon-Gingersnap Ham... SOOO good! My mom makes the best sour cream and chive potatoes, so those would be a close second. My favorite leftover is a Thanksgiving sandwich. Homemade roll from MIL, slice of turkey, stuffing, lots of cranberry sauce. MMM! Last night I was reading a Thanksgiving story to my kids and my DS7 kept groaning. I would SHH him and keep reading but finally I asked why he was making all that noise. He said, "I just want to eat all that food right now!" LOL. His favorite is jellied cranberry sauce. The kid will open a can of it anytime of year and eat it plain, by the spoonful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoppingChick13 Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Mmmmmmm everything sounds so yummy! DH wants me to make Kentucky Hot Browns with the leftover turkey. It is a opened face sandwich with Turkey, Bacon, Tomato and a homemade swiss cheese sauce, you put it all together and then finish it off in the oven until it is all golden brown and bubbly.

celticnurse Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 if i had to pick just one i'd have to say stuffing. if i could choose more, i'd add sauerkraut w/polish sausage. cut the sausage in 1-2 inch chunks (skin on), mix w/the sauerkraut, cook overnight in the crockpot. yum.

arf110106 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I love me some stuffing, but if I could pick more than one I'd say my uncle's spicy greens, baked macaroni and cheese & my mom's sweet potato pie..man I miss home. We're cooking our first Thanksgiving just our little family and while it won't be as extensive I'm sure it will be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
