After Thanksgiving Buffet

This is still the same Complete Holiday Cookbook - there are three more Thanksgiving menus, in addition to the other two! This is the After Thanksgiving Buffet. When would you serve and eat that? The menu:

Turkey Casserole

Minted Glazed Carrots

Green Beans

Cauliflower

Mushroom Cheese Sauce

Raspberry Salad Ring

Mincemeat Cake

Then, a Lemon Meringue Pie recipe is added. Yikes. That's a lot of odd flavors together!

Turkey Casserole doesn't actually sound too bad, though:

1 cup celery

1 large onion

1 1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. poultry seasoning

1 tsp. sage

1 large loaf bread, cubed

3 eggs (I didn't say it was healthy!)

3 cups diced turkey or chicken

2 cups turkey or chicken gravy

Combine celery and onion; mince in electric blender. Add celery mixture and seasonings to bread; mix well. Stir in eggs. Layer dressing and turkey in buttered casserole; repeat layers until all are used. Pour gravy over top; cover casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Yield: 6 servings.

The minted glazed carrots use honey, butter, mint. And they are served whole, as in the picture. Odd. Get some nice dill, cut them up and serve them in a bowl like we're supposed to in suburbia.

I'm reading Ann Pearlman's The Christmas Cookie Club. Yummy.
