Thanksgiving

So, I set out to make a special Thanksgiving dinner that's not like the one we always had, not matter where we ate:). I picked out some yummy side dishes, that were safe for our son to eat, or that I could easily make safe by substituting ingredients. I picked this recipe for Acorn Squash with Cranberry-Cornbread Stuffing I found on TastyKitchen.com as well as this super-easy and delicious recipe for Cranberry-Pomegranate Sauce, I found on thepioneerwoman.com.
For a vegetable side I made the most surprisingly yummy Brussels Sprouts ever. That recipe came from simplyrecipes.com.
We made a simple turkey and some mashed sweet and regular potatoes and had the best Thanksgiving meal so far….it helped too that I got to spend it with my favorite (American) family members:)




No Butter, but dairy-free margarine for the squash.

I had made some cornbread a few days earlier, so it came in handy.



Presentation is the key...


There you have it! Yummy all the way.
