Thanksgiving Round-Up

Once again, I will kick-off the most wonderful food week of the year, with a round-up of the Thanksgiving dishes that live here on Sly Rooster. Some would fall into the “traditional” category (always with a twist) and others, well, less so. 

So here it goes, a summary of recipes that I hope will make an appearance on many of your Thanksgiving tables. And please share if that is the case!

May your week be filled with family, friends-who-are-like-family, good food, delicious drink, laughs, hugs, naps, brisk walks, quick trots, football, pickle ball and very little political debate. And may the hostages be returned to their families. Happy Thanksgiving.
