We had a wonderful meal! It was a little tricky getting it ready since we all went to the parade in the morning and only returned home around 1:30. We ate at 5:30.
Turkey (a small 13 pound one so it would cook in 3 hours)
Dressing (not stuffed in, since that would slow down the cooking time of the bird)
Lion House Rolls (which I made ahead of time and froze right after shaping-- all I had to do was set them out to rise and bake!)
Green Bean Casserole (since my sister Carrie was here)
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
Frog Eye Salad
Cranberry Sauce
Lingonberry Jam (from IKEA -- since Trent served a mission in Sweden, he loves the stuff)
Homemade strawberry jam and butter for the rolls
It wasn't the hugest of meals, but in a limited amount of time it was all we could do. On Sunday we had Thanksgiving round 2.
Ham
Rice Pilaf
Roasted asparagus
Sweet Potatoes
Rolls, jam and butter
It was kind of nice to spread some of the traditional foods out over 2 bigs meals rather than all at once.
