Your Thanksgiving question



I just love the Saigon Sub so much! I'm a big Bahn Mi sandwich fan in the first place, Guy's is a great take on that. I just sub out any of the items with gluten (soy sauce, the bun), and I'm in Sandwich Heaven !http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/guy-fieri/saigon-sub-recipe/index.html
A Small turkey will feed three, if you want even smaller go with Chicken or even game hens, the cost will be a bit higher with that but it still works well, Mashed potatoes are a standard but mashed sweet potatoes is a great thanksgiving mix up, Ham can be saved for a time in the freezer and pie is a great desert, just some idea's
Turkey and noodles. Use homemade noodles or "Reames" egg noodles (in freezer section) they freeze and reheat well without sacrificing any flavor.
Go for a small turkey. Leftovers are great for sandwiches, both hot and cold.
Tempura Fried Okra!! Yeahhh! URL: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/guy-fieri/temp… . Normal boiled is so yummy, but it's tough to get past the slime! Deep fried w/cornmeal is good, but the flavor is changed. Guy transformed the okra into something pallatable and enjoyable while still preserving its essense. After following his recipe ~ I call it ~ "Okra-Home-Ah"… I cook for my Dad now, and He's from Stilwell, Oklahoma. 'Tis kind of a joke. At 50, I entered Culinary School. I've been a Public School Teacher for over 11 years. The School District dumped all the Non-Tenured Teachers because of lack of funding by the Feds. I took out my retirement to pursue my real dream…. to perform, perfect, and perfect! Heck with that! I just wanna make Dad and God Proud!
Put gizzards in pot with celery onion and carrot. Boil to make stock. Cook noodles in stock. Rest can be used for soup!
