Re: What do you think of this menu for my Thanksgiving Dinner?
If I like the menu, can I come over for dinner?
I think it's an extremely yummy sounding menu, I'd probably throw one more veggie out there (glazed carrots or spinach) but then again I like veggies, lol!

Mmm, cranberry fritters sound delish!
I would also add a veggie, something light and non-starchy.
Otherwise, I wouldn't change a thing!

Sounds so good. I agree I would also add another veggie, but that sounds really good. I never thought of mac & cheese before either but I love it. I am definitely doing that for us this year

Re: What do you think of this menu for my Thanksgiving Dinner?
Cranberry Fritters are basically cranberry sauce deep fried in a batter. I got it from Paula Deens show and it looked so yummy and simple..I had to try it!
Here's the recipe:
1 (13-ounce) can jelly style cranberry sauce, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds
2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup water
Oil, for frying
Directions
Lay the cranberry sauce rounds out in a single layer on a
parchment paper-lined sheet pan and freeze for 4 hours or until solid.
In a shallow bowl, place one cup of the flour. In another shallow bowl combine the remaining cup of flour with
the sugar, salt, and baking powder. Pour in the water and stir together until smooth. Let the batter rest for
15 minutes.
Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.

Menu sounds great. I've actually made those bacon-wrapped breadsticks before & they were a big hit!
Enjoy!

Interesting! Only Paula Deen would think to deep fry cranberry sauce!
