I am hosting a dinner for 5-7..Please advise me on the following..
A turkey--What size? Is it best to use a turkey bag or cook upside down and then flip the last half an hour?
Stuffing--If you use a "mix"--What can you add to make it more "homemade"?
Sweet Potatoes---Is a pecan topping or marshmellows more preferred by the majority?
Pies---Would pumpkin and pecan be enough or should I include a fruit pie or a cake maybe?
Snacks---I am expecting people at 4, dinner to be served at 6. Should I have snacks? If so, what are some good, quick, easy, and INexpensive options?
My meal tenatively includes: Turkey, Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, Green Bean Casserole, Cranberry Sauce, Turkey Gravy, Rolls...
Does that sound about right? Anything I should add or omit?
Boy holiday meals get expensive! (Thinking it would have been cheaper to take everyone out...;))
Thank you for the advice Everyone! Happiest of Holidays!
