Nov. 28th, 2013 05:38 pmWent the non-traditional route with food this year.
For lunch: sauteed shrimp (with tumeric/lime/ground pepper/sea salt) in butter/coconut oil with mook radish and green onion, over spicy greens, with avocado. Lime juice as dressing.
For dinner:
lamb chops with rosemary and pepper
artichock with rosemary butter/coconut oil
green bean with dill
For desert:
apple, with walnuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, butter and lemon juice.
To drink - Bengal herbal tea, or water with lime or lemon.
Also watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade - which seems more like a huge ad or marketing campaign every single year. Didn't see co-worker, but didn't expect to. At least she got to carry the Snoopy balloon though.

Date: 2013-11-29 03:44 am (UTC)Turns out I'd rather have it too...was never overly fond of Thanksgiving Dinner. Normally, I cook rock cornish game hen - but couldn't find it and it requires an orange/brown sugar/corn starch/butter and white wine sauce (which contains ingredients that I can't have). So went with lamb.
Not quite sure why everyone does Turkey, the pilgrim's most likely couldn't have done it - that was most like venison or something similar. Although I'd admittedly rather eat turkey than venison.
