Thanksgiving Recipes
November 16, 2007
Dear Friends, Since many of you will be preparing for your Thanksgiving meal this weekend, I thought I would share a few of my favorite recipes with you. Farmstead Stuffing 1 pound turkey sausage 1/2 cup real butter 1 cup chopped celery 1 cup onion 1 tsp dried sage 1 tsp dried thyme 14 ounces dried bread crumbs 1 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp dried parsley 1/2 tsp ground cloves 2 cups turkey or chicken stock 1 cup dried cranberries 1 cup chopped black walnuts sea salt and black pepper to taste Saute the sausage, celery and onion in the butter until onion is translucent and the sausage is browned. Add the sage and thyme. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sausage mixture, bread crumbs, herbs, broth, cranberries, and walnuts. Add sea salt and pepper and mix well. You can stuff this inside of your bird or bake in a glass casserole dish at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes. I love this stuffing! No other stuffing comes close! This even makes a nice main dish to fix during the winter months. I based it off of a recipe in Storey's 500 Treasured Country Recipes...my favorite cookbook! Cranberry Sauce 12 ounces of cranberries 1 can mandarin oranges 1 cup honey 1 tsp cinnamon In a saucepan, cook cranberries in 1 cup of water until they are tender. Add the oranges (drained),honey, and cinnamon. Cook for about 5 minutes more while stirring. Refrigerate or serve this warm. It sure beats the cranberry jelly from a can! Thanksgiving is a unique holiday set aside for the people of this country to give thanks to Yahweh for all of His blessings. My family celebrates the harvest during late September and early October, but we set aside Thanksgiving Day as a day to simply show Him gratitude for the blessing of living in this land. He has a purpose for this country. We read "The Stories of the Pilgrims", by Margaret B. Pumphrey every year at this time. Don't let Thanksgiving become just a "Turkey Day" or an extra shopping day. Give Him thanks! You could have been born in Russia or Cuba, but He put you here. I am offering 10% off for all orders that total over $20.00 until November 21st.
