Growing up my Nana did Thanksgiving dinner and always had Italian food woven into the meal. I was a teenager before I understood that most people did not serve a turkey AND a lasagna.

Who knew?

My grandparents were just trying to bring some of their family favorites to the table but I still crack up every time I think about the huge crowded Thanksgiving table, the extra banquet style table, packed with food and a big lasagna. Then there was Italian pastry table for desert. Pumpkin pie was never a centerpiece because the pastry was so good.
Lol...and here I thought my family was the ONLY one that had lasagna and Italian wedding soup at Thanksgiving!

The menu this year is gonna go the more traditional route (if only because I'm just cooking for the four of us ). Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potato cassarole, brussel sprouts, cranberry sauce, and Nantucket pie and reverse caramel apples for dessert.

Welcome to the Italian Thanksgiving table! lol. That is funny.

What is Nantucket pie? And reverse caramel apples? I am totally intrigued by that idea. Whatever it is. Caramel and apples together in any formation works for me.

I love this thread. I am learning so much.

Here is a link for Nantucket pie. It is delicious!

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/k...ipe/index.html

I've never made the reverse caramel apples...but they look SO good that I am gonna give them a try. You take some granny smith apples, slice in half, core them and hollow them out a bit, then pour in melted caramel. Refrigerate until the caramel sets and then slice. Mmmmmmmmm!

Thank you for the link. Wow that pie sounds great.

The caramel apple idea is a good one. I am missing going up to our local apple region this fall. It is always a fun trip and I usually bring back apple pie, apple dumplings, caramel apples..fresh apples..can you tell that I like apples?

oh dang soup sounds good today. I have a big ass bag of baking potatoes for thanksgiving. I think I need to snag a few of those and some cheese and .... hmmmm some potato soup or something. I wish I had some bacon.

I grew a tons of sweet potatoes and butternut squash. I'm cooking a sweet potato now. I love to put cinnamon on them.

You just reminded me that I have butternut squash. Hmm..guess I had better cook it. When I make butternut bisque it flies out the door. I would be lucky to get some.

Bacon..I still have to plan a bacon dinner party. This is something special for a friend who is a bacon freak. I played around with a BLT soup idea: Tomato, Escarole, garlic and bacon. Veg base. It was good. Still working on the details of the whole dinner menu. The only special request was a bacon vodka martini.

Sweet potatoes I could eat every day. One of the things that I make for the kids in my family are hand cut sweet potato fries. Just peel, cut and bake. Nothing to it. Then I make a dipping sauce, usually maple. Sometimes coconut. Easy. The kids love it.
