Happy Thanksgiving!
"Gobble till you wobble!" is a common phrase that family and friends call out to each other tonight as they gather for the Thanksgiving feast.
Loosely translated, it is "eat/swallow until you shake!" and that's sort of the
motto of the day
.
From sweet potatoes with marshmallow crust and bread cube filling (comparable to bread dumplings) to Brussels sprouts and green bean casseroles to pumpkin pie and pecan pie - the list of favorite dishes is long.
The heart of the meal is the
turkey 🦃
, which weighs a good 8 kilograms on average.
So that the host does not have to toil in the kitchen for several days, everyone participates in the dinner by bringing the side dishes and desserts themselves.
That way, the person who invites everyone can focus on the big bird in the oven.
Fancy a Thanksgiving dinner but don't have room for a big hungry pack or turkey?
Then prepare your own
little feast
on a
single baking sheet
.
Everything that makes a successful Thanksgiving meal is included - at least from a culinary point of view.
Happy Thanksgiving!
