Mine is

A HUGE Roasted Turkey
Dressing
Mashed Potatoes
Corn
Gravy - I make it every year, although no one really likes it (we're not gravy people) You should all be
Home made, from scratch, yeast rolls
pumpkin pie and
lemon meringue (my husbands request)
Usually it's pecan pie

Nothing beats home made giblet gravy!

Full meal at noon: Turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing, green beans, gravy. Followed by beer and a nap in front of the TV while football is on.

Full meal at 6:00: Same as above, but swap beer for wine.

9:00: Fall into a food induced coma.

No sleeping during football! That's what halftime is for.

I hope I can break 3000 cals with today's meal.

My favorite meal is, in fact, thanksgiving dinner. Well, the bird, the stuffing and the gravy. I can eat it for weeks and never ever get tired of it.

And we are talking the best gravy too. The kind that gives cholesterol..cholesterol. I dont care about fucking calories and dieting when this shit is in the kitchen. Sometimes you have to rise above your morals...

Besides being healthy...how much fat & protein is in the turkey (not including gravy or stuffing, just the bird)?

I'm making:

Turkey
Chicken Sausage and Cranberry Stuffing
Gravy
Cinnamon and Brown Sugar Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Garlic Mashed Red Potatoes
Green Bean Almondine
Roasted Onions
Sauteed Spinach with perl onions
Corn
Half Pistachio Half Chocolate Torte
Homemade apple pie

I'm going to eat eggs and oatmeal

I agree, but I really have no say in the matter.


I always make sure to work out Wednesday night and Turkey Day morning so I can eat with a PURPOSE.

The gravy really isn't that bad as far as fat is concerned. I use only a small amount of the rendered fat from the bird drippings to make it. Otherwise it's stock, veggies, giblets (and these are pulled out), seasoning and flour. And, it freaking ROCKS!

I can't wait! Only 27 hours of cooking and slaving then TOUCHDOWN!

There is a third Thanksgiving NFL game at 8:00PM on the NFL Network. HOORAY for digital cable!

IAB, there was a lot of talk about this. Apparently 3 of the biggest cable companies still haven't included the NFL network to their package. I would hate to be one of those poor slobs. I have Direct TV, so all is good in da hood!

Hmm... well we use ALL of the fat the bird drips in the pan.

I wont eat turkey without the gravy, so lots are made.

Strangely, we don't eat Turkey anymore for thanksgiving... we prefer steak over chicken (on special occations), and in this case we have a $130 prime rib for 5 people. Easily going to gain 3 pounds in the next few days.. I REFUSE to go back to college until I eat the leftovers in entirety. man on a mission

Turkey, rice, gravy, peas w/ mayo, buttered steamed carrots, corn on the cob, sushi, sashimi, tonkatsu sauce for my turkey & rice, maybe some frozen mochi treats, Ice cream and Apple Pie, Pumpkin Cheesecake, wine, beer, cocktails or POG...
