Thanksgiving is a day to celebrate harvest and give thanks for other blessings of the year. Families prepare various types of dishes on thanksgiving. Some of the popular dishes for Thanksgiving include:
Turkey garnished with veggies and fruits: Thanksgiving is never complete without turkey. This dish is usually made using a full turkey and garnished with fruits, veggies, and seasoned using herbs for traditional Thanksgiving aroma.
Sweet Potato Casserole: This is a unique Thanksgiving dish. It is prepared by cooking fresh potatoes and adding sugar to it, alongside fruit and marshmallow. There is a departure from the norm here. Rather than the traditional way of adding butter or nuts, just extra candies are added to make a Thanksgiving dish.
Roasted Root Vegetables: Thanksgiving day is one of such days when often-ignored root vegetables such as parsnips, celeriac, purple carrots become golden. Brussel sprouts are also a common Thanksgiving dish which is usually roasted and adorned with bacon, and they really taste good. Sometimes, it is preferred to most high-calorie dishes during Thanksgiving holiday.
Creamed Spinach: Cream spinach can be made into several things, and besides, it supplies you with abundant iron mineral if you need such supplement during Thanksgiving. It is a vegetable that usually makes the day on Thanksgivings.
Cranberry Sauce: This is a good complement for turkey on festive days. Cranberry sauce, although somewhat sour, has a characteristic flavor and tangy appearance that makes it ideal as a side dish for turkey. Good enough, the cranberry sauce is easy to make and not scarce to get.
Stuffing: This is the last Thanksgiving dish on our list. Stuffing is such a meal that can be taken all year long. It is a delicious, neatly crispy and yet very fluffy and wet meal. It has sage, thyme and a host of other important Thanksgiving-time flavors. I wonder why we don’t eat it at regular meals.
