We already celebrated our Thanksgiving because I'm working on Thursday, but I thought it would be fun to share our favorite Thanksgiving Recipes.
Sweet Potato Casserole
40 oz canned sweet potatoes
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup all purpose flour
2/3 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
2 eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease 2 quart baking dish. Heat, drain and mash sweet potatoes. Combine with white sugar, eggs, 1/3 cup of melted butter, milk and vanilla. Place in prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, chopped pecans, flour and 1/3 cup melted butter.
Sprinkle the pecan mixture over the top of sweet potato mixture. Bake at 350degrees for 35 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
Mama’s Dressing (or stuffing, depending on where you're from)
1 13/9 pan of cornbread
5 cooked grands biscuits
5 boiled eggs, diced (I shred them on a grater)
2 cans chicken broth
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of celery soup
1 tsp sage
salt & pepper to taste
Sauté onions and celery in a small skillet with some butter or cooking spray until tender. Crumble cornbread, & biscuits together in a large bowl. Add eggs, sage, celery, onions, salt, pepper and soups. Use hands to mix as you slowly add chicken broth to the mixture, one can at a time. You may not need to whole cans, you want it to be moist, by not runny. It will dry out as it cooks. Bake at 375 degrees until golden brown on top.
And this year I made Paula Deen's Recipe for Chocolate Pecan Pie, OMG!!!
