Two of my favorite Paleo friendly food bloggers, have put up menus and recipes to tackle Thanksgiving.
Over at Everyday Paleo, Sarah Fregoso’s Thanksgiving menu includes: roast turkey, crab stuffed mushrooms, prosciutto wrapped pears, stuffing, Paleo holiday yams, broccoli cauliflower casserole, cranberry sauce, and Everyday Paleo pumpkin pie. Yum!
Elana’s Pantry has a terrific sounding gluten-free Thanksgiving menu that is mostly Paleo-approved:
- Rosemary Crackers and Goat Cheese
- Mashed Cauliflower
- Chestnuts and Brussel Sprouts
- Kale with Cranberries
- Herb Gravy
- Cranberry Sauce
- Balsamic Roasted Turkey
- Biscuits
- Tart and Tangy Cranberry Bars
- Pumpkin Custard
I can’t wait to try the herb gravy. I love that it’s thickened with pureed onions as opposed to some weird ass gluten-free starch.
Over at Serious Eats, there is a great recipe for cooking a cut-up turkey that makes sure all parts are cooked to perfection. And they have a shitload of links to awesome veggie sides on this page.
I’m really happy that I won’t be working on Thanksgiving this year. I’m even more thankful that I won’t be hosting! We’ll be attending a potluck buffet at Fitbomb’s parents’ house and we’ll be bringing veggie sides. And maybe some cupcakes.
