Guest guest Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 We'll be making the main dish, the roasted medley, and the stuffing. That's plenty for us! I'll let you know how it comes out. Cindi Pat <drpatsant wrote: That does look good, Cindi! I have a copy of the menu in front of me: Maple-roasted pear salad (246 calories, 15 g total fat) Harvest vegetable medley (245 calories, 7.5 g total fat) make-ahead gravy (11 calories,0 fat) Chestnut-and-apple stuffing (275 calories, 5.5 total fat) Jellied cranberry molds (155 calories, 0 fat) Tangerine-glazed polenta cake (241 calories, 15 g total fat) That's 1173 total calories per person for the meal and 43 g fat (ouch!) per person. I'm sure some inventive members who are on a fat-restricted diet could find a way of reducing that, however. The calories are higher than most of us could afford for a single meal, but hey it's Thanksgiving! How often does that day occur in a year, right? LOL Me, I'd skip the cake because after all that yummy food I'd not have room for it, but others might want to make other trades The main dish - Harvest vegetable medley - is also egg-and-dairy free, as is the gravy, the stuffing and the cranberry molds. The salad can be easily adapted for vegans (subbing vegan 'parmezan' for the cheese and agave nectar for the honey). The cake takes four large eggs and sour cream, so I'm not quite sure how that would adapt. It looks absolutely delicious. If any of you try any part of this menu, could you please let us know?

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Sounds good! I'll take pics for my blog too and get them up in a more timely fashion. :-) I imagine we'll like it as we've enjoyed the last 2 years' main dishes from the mag. I'm looking forward to the stuffing. Made one last year that was just not right! So disappointing. Hoping for better results this time around. Cindi Patricia Sant <drpatsant wrote: That'd be my pick too!
