For me, I need to have my Mother's Cranberry Jello Mold/Salad I suppose you call it. It's taken me years to get this recipe out of her, but finally!
(I'll be making for the first time this Thanksgiving)
Real simple actually:
1 package Cranberry Jello (follow directions on the box)
1 can whole cranberry sauce
1 can mandarin oranges, drained
1 can crushed pineapple, drained
about 1 cup or so slivered almonds
I don't have her tupperware jello mold from, what, the 60's, but I think I can make it work
DH must have store bought Apple Sauce and canned creamed corn ACK!
Ooh, and coleslaw, that I've gotten use to and actually like... ***note to self, gotta look for my coleslaw recipe!!
These last few years we've shared Thanksgiving with Mister & Missus Dear Friends, who are Vegetarian/Vegan... last year we had kale salad, vegan lasagna, two types of vegetarian stuffing, WAY TOO creamy (even for me) mashed potatoes, vegan gravy, vegan green bean casserole, a can of whole cranberry sauce and King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls... (can you say - carb overload?)
It was for the most part okay, but ... I'm making a feast for just two this year, the "regular way" as my husband says.
