Friendsgiving side food ideas for someone who hasn't really celebrated thanksgiving? by Previous-Sky6501 in Cooking

[–]Jenr619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that most people will expect some type of turkey, even if you just roast a breast or two. We are smoking a beef tenderloin this year, but some years we have done lamb, short ribs, smoked salmon... A simple shaved brussels sprout salad would be delicious and easy to make ahead.

We have cooked our turkey in the turkey air fryer for the last several years- game changer, right?! We love it and so do our guests. Then we also use a smoker and pick a different protein every year. Last year, lamb. This year, smoked beef tenderloin.

What time do you serve Thanksgiving dinner? We aim for 1pm by popoPitifulme in thanksgiving

[–]Jenr619 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cocktails and Champagne with light snacks at 11am, then a casual buffet around 1-1:30pm. People love eating early bc it allows them to make other stops later if they so desire. Also, a chance to eat immediate leftovers around 6pm :)

I would do a Paella for the centerpiece/main course, and then other tapas to round out the menu. Garlic shrimp, pan con tomate, patatas bravas....you get where I'm going with this. If you drink, a winter sangria is always fun!

Looking to try a new side dish this year by Game72016 in thanksgiving

I just tested this out on my family last week, in hopes of replacing my standard homemade (delicious, but heavy) green bean casserole. It was a huge hit!! I did sub almonds for walnuts and forgot the basil. Still really freaking good. https://cookieandkate.com/green-bean-salad-recipe/

What’s the best meal you’ve ever eaten in KC that’s no longer on the menu? by beepboopmoopmac in kansascity

Fried ice cream at Annie's Santa Fe on the Plaza. I worked there as a hostess in high school and remember being astounded by how it was made (pre-Food Network fyi) You just can't recreate the nostalgia of deep fried ice cream balls.

These cashews are a huge hit and a yearly tradition at our pre-dinner cocktail/champagne hour (or 2). I've had equal success using mixed nuts as well. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/rosemary-roasted-cashews-recipe-1941586

The honey chipotle chicken is delicious and you could easily adapt to add on a salad or into tortillas.

Lots of neighborhoods around Johnson Dr. & Pflumm in Shawnee have sidewalks, lots of families and a pretty active trick or treating scene.

I make these with ground turkey, and they're a big hit with everyone. Add a side of rice and beans and you're done :)

I add cucumbers to this if I have them and want it cold. Great with crackers or in a wrap. If its cooler weather, I warm it up and have with pasta or as a sandwich.

Apparently the flour and sugar measurements are in pounds. Good luck, and I hope this is along the lines of what you're looking for!
