What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish?

TURKEY!!!

And stuffing. I'm a big sucker for my Mom's stuffing. It's not elaborate and full of stuff, it's mostly whole grain bread, onions & poultry seasoning, but I love it.

It's become a well known thing in our house that my Mom makes the best turkey in the world. Our theory is that it's because she loves turkey so much that it's infused with it. She doesn't get fussy with basting or glazes and it's always the best turkey I've ever had.

This year for Thanksgiving (which was last month in Canada), we had turkey, mashed yams, peas & onions and steamed carrots & onions. Seeing as it was a 17lb turkey for 3 people we then spent the rest of a week coming up with creative ways to use up the leftovers. Turkey cobbler, turkey soup, turkey stock, turkey sandwiches, turkey salad... by the end I was turkeyed-out.

Good question :) and Happy Thanksgiving!
