I'm sure almost anything you decide to bring will be enjoyed by all.  I would probably bring something not too heavy (and easy to make) like deviled eggs.  Maybe you could make/bring some sort of dip and crackers to go along with the dip.  It's nice to have a variety of food at Thanksgiving.  Enjoy your holiday!

You've got it.  Traditional is turkey, stuffing, mashed taters, gravy, Green bean casserole, corn, sweet potatoes, rolls or bread and maybe a few different types of salad, maybe some cranberry and ham depending on how many you'll be having.  We have almost 20 so we do turkey and ham.\nI also make an apple carmel pie and we have pumpkin pie too of course.\nIt's a big day of eating.  We gather a couple of hours before dinner, some are cooking the gravy and taters but while we do this we have chips and dip, deviled eggs, veggie and fruit trays and we just start grazing.\nGood Luck and don't stress.  How about calling some of the people who are coming and asking them to do the casserole and yams and maybe have someone bring the ham.  It will be hard for you to do it all in one oven.

Tofu Turkey also called 'Tofurky' can be purchased at many natural food grocery stores. This is an easy vegetarian alternative.\n\nIf you want to cook a tofu turkey from scratch\nVegweb offers a nice tofu turkey recipe. \n\nIf you want to offer something different than tofu turkey, \na tasty alternative I suggest is Lightlife ""Gimme Lean Sausage"which can be used to make a fantastic Thanksgiving vegetarian dish. The recipe is called 'baked butternut squash stuffed with apples and "fake' sausage'. \n\nMambo Sprouts  E-Newsletter offers a 'Thanksgiving Holiday Guide' with this great meatless- vegetarian recipe, other recipes include vegetarian or meat included appetizers, side dishes, main dishes, dessert recipes, and wellness tips in a free pdf download.\n\nMeatless Mondays offers a nice bean dish recipe that would be a nice vegetarian alternative. Three-Bean "Cassoulet"

Here's what I'm serving:  homemade "turkey" roast made from Tofu.  Several recipes are available on the web (or you can buy tofurkery or unturkey (made from gluten), both of which are good).  Glazed brussel sprouts, roasted potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, stuffing, mushroom gravey and maybe another dish if I have the energy.\n\nI disagree with the answer that you should cook turkey for your non-vegetarian friends.  Just tell them before hand that it's a vegetarian thanksgiving, and if they can't live without turkey, let them get it elsewhere.\n\nEnjoy!

First, take a deep breath and a sip of wine...LOL\nTo clean the Turkey, all you need is warm water - nothing else necessary. \nIf this is your first I would suggest cooking the stuffing seperately in a pan. \nPreheat the oven to 325 or 350. You need to put plenty of water (about 3 inches ) in the bottom of the pan, and either cover it with the top or with tin foil. Ina any case - spray the tin foil with some cooking spray - then the skin doesn't stick to it. \nCook the bird 1hr for every 4lbs of meat. Keep basting it with the water, keep adding water along the way. This will be used for your gravy later. Good luck - if you need more help you can email me.....

Sweet potato biscuits are delicious, I plan to make them myself this year.  Cranberry sauce (homemade is the best, but canned is good too) is a traditional favorite.  I plan on also making a pumpkin gingerbread.  I may make caramel-apple pie, as well as a sweet pear pie.  If you want, I can give you the links to the recipes for any of these ideas.  Or I could give you the link to the site where I found some other great ideas.  I'm making chocolate-covered orange balls and chocolate-orange truffles for Christmas!
