Episode-2554- Fun Foods for Thanksgiving

November 25, 2019

Okay I am going to try to have fun with my two days of work this week and not be too serious about anything.  Today we are going to talk about some fun foods for Thanksgiving.  I’ll say a little bit about turkey but we have done enough of that over the years, so you can reference this past episode for Keith Snow’s Turkey How To for a standard roasted turkey.
I want to focus on some side dishes, some additional meat options and yea even some keto/low carb options.  However, let me say Thanksgiving is one day a year.  My plan this year to not over due things is…

Step One – eat what ever I want
Step Two – send all high carb left overs home with family/friends
Step Three – Anything high carb I can’t send away goes to the duck compost pit

 
It is only one day but you gotta keep it one day, if you have high carb left overs around for a week it is bad juju for those living la vita low carb.

Quote of the Day – When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around. ~ Willie Nelson
Hey first let me tell you about my reasonably productive weekend
Okay first and foremost if you can, consider cooking your turkey on Wednesday
Remember roaster ovens are awesome for Thanksgiving
For wine remember Jadot Beaujolais-Villages for the meal
Some of my not quite conventional sides

Twice roasted fingerling potatoes and bacon
Bacon wrapped asparagus (or green beans)
Squash/Pumpkin Apple Soup
Beer bread – stupid simple
Andouille sausage and cornbread stuffing

A few keto/low carb options

For stuffing use a low carb bread, riced cauliflower and sausage of your choice
Stuffed mushrooms – stuffed with anything you want
For keto gravy just use xanthan gum at about 1/2 tsp to 3 cups liquid instead of flour
Loaded Zucchini Skins
Keto Chocolate Mug Cake
Chia Seed Pudding (endless options)

Deserts (non keto)

Baked Apples (stupid simple)Look Out
Dark Chocolate and Good Red Wine

Some Adult Indulgences

Home made liquor of your choice
Midas Touch Ale
Apple pie moonshine

1 750ML Bottle of Everclear (or high proof shine)
2 Cups of Vanilla Vodka – secret (no longer well kept)
2 Cups of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum – secret (no longer well kept)
2 Gallons of Apple Cider
8 Real Cinnamon Sticks (Ceylon) – secret
2 Cups Brown Sugar
2 Cups Honey – Secret until today
Tune in For the Procedure

Remember it one day, have fun, feast, don’t fight, don’t take argument bait
