Thanksgiving is around the corner and Trend Hunter’s Courtney Scharf talks about some delicious alternate Thanksgiving meals you can try out. Whether you want to try something new this year or if you have leftover food, these meals are great ways to prepare and enjoy your leftovers.
Her first alternative find is a turkey lasagna, but instead of minced beef, there’s turkey, potato and beans. You can add extra cheese to this to make it even more delicious because let's face it, there’s something about melted cheese that makes pies taste extra good. Another idea is to make a cake out of savory items. You can layer the turkey, surround it with potato instead of icing and top it off with some pumpkin. There’s really no limit to how creative you can get with a Thanksgiving cake.
Another meal that’s the strangest of them all is baked turkey stuffed with Twinkies. You heard it here. Apparently this is quite the delicacy, but it’s up to you if you want to get that experimental. These unique and delicious alternate Thanksgiving meals will inspire you to really impress your family, friends and guests. Have a Thanksgiving you’ll never forget.
