Keep it on the side

Well, all the ghouls and goblins have moved on. The weather is finally cooling down here in Houston, so it must mean Thanksgiving is around the corner. It’s Turkey Time! I plan to bring have a few recipes for you to get your turkey and side dishes on, but first a poll. Because we all know that’s how good turkey starts. Maybe not, but you know how you like to have a say.

What I’d like to do is recreate the traditional Thanksgiving side dishes, but add a Latin-Caribbean flair. Sounds good already, doesn’t it? I’ll leave this poll open until November 7th. The side dish chosen will be recreated and posted a few days later. Don’t be shy, though, let me know what sides you like to serve and how you prepare them. Go to the bottom of the post for the poll.

In other news, one of my blog buddies, Nancy over at SpicieFoodie, is hosting a monthly recipe roundup and I will be participating for October’s roundup. The event is called Your Best Recipe and depicts bloggers favorite recipe posted for that month. Do check out SpicieFoodie and all the other delicious recipes in the roundup. Click on the photo or the link to go directly to the YBR page.

And for my final announcement. This is my Blogiverssary month, so stay tuned for some exciting things to come in the next few days.

Now make your vote count!

Cookingly yours,
Anamaris

    I think you should do all of them...ha, ha. I love the idea. My mind is racing with what I would do to Latinize them. Well, I've actually done a Latin-inspired stuffing but the others could use a little 'sabor'!!

      Great minds, Joan. I do plan on revisiting all them, including the dressing (me no likie stuffing). What did you do to your stuffing to Latinize it?

    We've already had our Thanksgiving up here, and now I think I should be making another turkey to celebrate yours! ;-)

      Is Thanksgiving the same in Canada? Did you take pictures? What's on the table on a Canadian Thanksgiving?

    Since moving to Europe we haven't celebrated Thanksgiving. Your post is making me homesick for a American Thanksgiving with Mexican flair dinner that my family always cooked. I vote for Pumpkin Pie, just because I can never get enough of it :)
