Ate tofu turkey for the first time, not bad at all!

Yeah, Didn't eat any Turkey. Did have a few actual Turkeys to the house. Though it can be said they were not harmed, they were ruthlessly harassed and emotionally abused until they stormed out. Traditions, Go figure.

I have turkey 2-3 times a year. I like it. So long as we provide for the survival of our food animals, I see no issue with it.

The meaning of Thanksgiving to me is about abundance. It can be tons of turkey or tons of cookies, I don't really care as long as we have the time, means and peace of mind to enjoy the time off watching some football.

I just made a ribeye with sauteed mushrooms and onions baby corn potatoe salad

Yep. No special groceries purchased and nothing out of the ordinary cooked either. Rather than pie, I had a salad instead of dessert. It was a good day and I'm not overstuffed as is the tradition.

Yes & no. I made salmon with a side of naked spanikopita (normal food). I did make my first attempt at crustless coconut cream pie in my now gluten free world. It was spot on for taste but I will have to work on the "crust". It was a little tough/thick around the bottom edge. My son wolfed it down & went back for 2nds saying, "I remember you making this when we were kids. So good."

pretty close. I made something I like that takes longer to cook but otherwise no festive type dishes

My niece's (nephew's wife-not the same one mentioned in an earlier post) employer bought all his employees a Boston Butt for Thanksgiving.
My nephew made an amazing BBQ sauce from scratch.
I had mini-slider pulled pork sandwiches and a slice of cheesecake so good, it would make you want to slap your mama.
I skipped the sides.
Almost a typical Sunday dinner situation here.

We wouldn't have done a turkey. Neither my nephew nor I care for it. Unless it's deep-fried.

As I was cooking all of the normal Thanksgiving shit, I realized that I'm really tired of it. And I forgot the one freaking native dish I always make. Thankfully it's two more years before I have my kid for this holiday again. Maybe by then I can talk my family into a different menu.
