Thanksgiving Menu

Recommended Posts

Here's our menu. I think it may be a little much for 10-12 people but what the hell. Time to get fat and happy. Everything made from scratch. Have to invite more people next time.

Appetizers

Crab and spinach dip - Julie
Sausage/Cheese Rolls - Julie
Cream Cheese Dip - Vandi
Shrimp Corn Chowder - Jason

Sides

Mirliton Casserole - Cindy
Parmesan Crusted Asparagus - Julie
Broccoli Rice - Dee
Candied Yams - Jason
Honey Glazed Carrots - Dee
Garlic Mashed Potatoes - Vandi
Homemade Bread - Dee
Stuffing - Vandi

Main Course

Turkey - Jason
Pork Loin with Curried Fruit - Dee

Dessert

Pistachio Cake - Jason
Mississippi Mud Pie - Jason
Pumpkin Gingerbread Trifle - Vandi

I usually make all cajun dishes but I figured it would be less work to let other people cook as well.

Nope, been in Houston for about 9 years and I still don't really dig the stuff.

Mirliton, pronounced kinda like melatawn, is a type of squash. I've heard it called Chayote, or something like that, in Spanish if that helps you.

See attached pic.
