Since I didn't have any..went to a restaurant...today I'm making a sweet potato, carrot, onion, apple, lima bean casserole with pumpkin pie seasonings, some olive oil and white wine. Putting bread crumbs on top soon. Smells delicious! actually just using up some stuff that was hanging around after eating out for a few days!  How about you?? |

My reply is in Thanksgiving Feast anyone ? page 5.
It probably fits here too.

Don't know where to post this...
A friend just told me she had "turducken" for Thanksgiving. Looked it up and saw that it is a chicken in a duck in a turkey. Has anyone had this? I'm curious!

I'm pretty sure Turducken originated down here in south Louisiana. I've had it before and prefer regular old turkey. The ones I've had were a boneless chicken stuffed with rice dressing that had been stuffed into a boneless duck that was stuffed into a turkey. The theory is that the fat in the duck keeps the turkey from drying out. Many of the restaurants and seafood/boudin places down here sell them during the holidays.
We're having turkey day leftovers tonight. I just threw it all into the freezer on Thursday because I knew I wouldn't get to it before now what with Black Friday and the big shopping weekend. Tonight we're having turkey, dressing and sweet potatoes.
I put the rest of the turkey carcass into my stock pot with a bunch of veggies and a bouquet garnis. It will simmer all night and become a base for turkey gumbo and jambalaya later on.
Happy eating everyone!

My first response when someone mentions "turducken" is, "why?" Really, I don't get it - pick one and eat it!
T-day leftovers: as usually is the case, we had dinner at the home of one of my brothers and declined to take any leftovers with us because it's just too tempting to prolong the "too much of a good thing" syndrome! That said, I do love leftover turkey (or ham, yum!) but, then again, that's why I decline to take it home. . . . I'd rather just save those calories for a trip to Paris!
