Tired of Turkey? You
are not alone! Whether it is just the feeling of wanting something different
this year, or you are seriously anti-turkey,
it really might be like they say “ a change is as good as a rest”.
Everywhere you look there are alternative menus. There are websites full of ideas from total
vegetarian to the truly spectacular.
Some lean towards not having leftovers to deal with (personally the leftovers are my favourite part ), some go for unusual ingredients and some for the ease and time spent. Here are a few that caught my eye.
Epicurious offers
some intriguing options
including a mexican themed menu that really got me thinking.
Woman’s Day has always been a go to publication for recipes
and they offer plenty of turkey alternatives that are simple, straightforward and satisfying.
Food and Wine magazine offers some wonderful alternatives
from honey glazed lamb to slow roasted salmon. These recipes may be a little more complex
but the outcome will not disappoint.
And About.com has also listed some interesting menus
including a menu suggestion from author Calvin Trillin that the menu should be
Italian!
Have fun this Thanksgiving and if a break from tradition is
what you are looking for I hope you will find something here that will work for
you.
