Assistance needed!
I am significantly stressing out about making Thanksgiving dinner this year. If anyone has any suggestions about changes I can make or preparation tips if you have made any of this before (I've never even attempted to make a turkey, so, yeah) please hit me up somehow. All you Nebraska people should give me suggestions on local places to buy produce, which I think I'll be doing Tuesday. We're already planning on going to Tomato Tomato and Wenninghoff's. We'll probably have to stop at Whole Foods too.
Keep in mind this is for 20 adults and several kids so the (unbelievable and intimidating) amount of food is kind of necessary...
Working menu:
Aji amarillo sauce with batata chips, shrimp with tarragon aioli, honey ham, herb roasted turkey, oyster brioche stuffing, wild rice dressing, brie chive biscuits, bolillos, mashed russet and sweet potatoes, roasted calabaza, green beans and lemon butter, glazed pearl onions, sweet potato stuffed oranges, gingersnap pear cheesecake, triple chocolate pumpkin pie, pumpkin pie and apple tart and for the kiddos, pumpkin cookies drizzled with chocolate.
I feel like I'm cheating with fruit by only using it in a mainly potato dish and dessert. Fruit help would be greatly appreciated. I guess people care more about potatoes and dessert anyway, yeah?
