Easy. Turkey (5), Potatoes (4), Pecan Pie (3), Green Bean Casserole (3). Pretty much exactly what I'll eat but I'll be adding gravy.

 

[BelemNole]

Turkey, mashed, rolls, gravy
Rest is optional.

 

[Whatsgoingonwitgyouguys0190]

How can I only grab bread once? Have I been transported to the ussr?

 

[Bro D]

This scoring system is frustrating so I gave up. Turkey, Green been caserole, stuffing, scalloped corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, hawaiian role = Me happy

 

[bagdropper]

Turkey, mashed, rolls, gravy
Rest is optional.

Pretty much this. Add corn is about all I'd suggest.

Keep it simple.

I’m just going to do a drive by of a roll in the gravy and once I’ve licked it I dare someone to take it back.

 

[BelemNole]

And for bread it has to be these biscuits from Costco.

Since scalloped corn isn't on there, I will count that as a zero. I guess I'll give up the rolls and stufing if i HAVE to.. but I'm not gonna. All your points are belong to us

I've been doing this with my kids all day. Two of them had seizures. Cranberry sauce is only one point on theirs because kids don't like it until college.

Dressing = Stuffing -- for the most part

 

[BlIIlken2]

Only mashed potatoes. Also stuffing is trash and belongs in the trash. Nasty stuff.

How about 'no'. I'm at 27 and I've not yet included wine, cream of peanut soup, or a mess of black olives. do you think i actually run my annual neighborhood turkey trot for fun? that i want to stay awake for the end of 4pm football game (let alone the potential to have to do dishes)?

Gravy
Pecan Pie

 

[noleclone2]

Turkey, Mash, Green Bean Casserole, Gravy and Ambrosia (in my case this apple grape marshmallow fruit salad we make)

Pie choices are red herrings. That comes hours later sitting in recliner in sweat pants during the second NFL game.

 

[Aardvark86]

BTW, I really do urge you all to make cream of peanut soup - a great Virginia tradition - for a pregame:

Boil one diced onion and 2 large carrots in 1qt chicken stock until veggies are soft, then puree.
Stir in 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup peanut butter, and 1/4 cup crushed peanuts.
Serve warm with tabasco.

Easy peasy, and goes very well with cold turkey sandwich the next day.

I like it! Have a new pool of the good/fun hors d'oevres that go with Thanksgiving!
Black Olives
Cheese ball covered in crushed walnuts
Deviled eggs
Tiny meatballs in grape jelly/bbq sauce
Pigs in blankets
Cranberry brie
Marinated mozzarella balls
Onion dip

That sounds gross, and I like/love all of the ingredients individually.

lots to like on that list, though i usually avoid cheeses. for us (coming from pa dutch country with some slavic ancestry) growing up, it was always pickled eggs and beets, though the sight of purple eggs with bright yellow yolks always sorta freaked me out.

my day is, wake up, run turkey trot, have friends over for coffee and pastry/fruit after turkey trot, then starve self until the gorging.

 

[JMNSHO]

Turkey 5
Stuffing 5
Cranberry relish 3
Gravy 2

I would be fine with this. Where’s the wild rice tho?

Trust me. it's awesome. Rich, so you only need a bit as an appetizer or bridge to dinner.
