Thanksgiving Menus

  • By The Chew
What would the Happy Endings gang serve on Thanksgiving? ABC's The Chew has created some menus for them, and you can try out the recipes yourself to have an ah-mah-zing feast!

Jane's Modern Menu

Always the competitive perfectionist, Jane would likely serve the latest in fine cuisine made from organic and locally-grown foods. This four-course meal would fit right in next to the life-size turkey ice sculpture she'd use as a centerpiece. While Jane would begin prepping for Thanksgiving two weeks in advance, you should be able to pull off this menu in a half a day.



Appetizer
Roasted Dates with Pancetta and Almond Bruschetta

Salad
Autumn Roasted Vegetables with Lentils

Dinner
Roasted Carrots with Feta and Mint
Stuffed Turkey Breast
Merguez, Cornbread and Chestnut Stuffing

Dessert
Blueberry Coconut Tart



Penny's Alternative Thanksgiving

Terminally single Penny would opt for feasting on the Warrior Salad before searching for a date to reclaim the Year of Penny that never was. If that doesn't go so well, she could always comfort herself with a healthy smoothie.

Beverages
Green Drink Smoothie

Dave's Native American Thanksgiving
Being 1/16th Navajo, Dave would want to create a menu that's 16/16ths based on the first Thanksgiving. Sure, the Navajo weren't part of the first Thanksgiving, but neither were these any of these dishes. You don't really want to eat venison, do you? This menu is at least inspired by the first Thanksgiving and includes traditional English food, turkey and corn (or, as Dave would call it, maize).



Appetizer
Corn Cakes

Side Dish
Beef Stew

Main Course
Juicy Turkey Cooked in Cheese Cloth
