Have you planned your Thanksgiving menu yet? I confess it’s just over a week away and and we are still finalizing the menu. Right now we know we are having turkey—we already have the turkey in hand—and some kind of rolls, the rest is still to be decided. We always have a hard time narrowing down from our list of favorites and of course we like to try at least one new dish, so I need to get cracking!
This year Springpad wants to help you with your Thanksgiving meal planning and give you and a blogger a chance to win a little cash. Check out their Happy Springsgiving contest and pick your favorite Thanksgiving dishes from seven different menus selected by food bloggers, including yours truly. Vote for your favorites by springing your favorite recipe(s) to your Springpad account. The blogger whose menu gets the most total springs (votes) will win $500 and one lucky voter will be randomly selected to win $100. And of course I hope that one of my readers wins!
The other bloggers who entered the contest:
Here’s my contest menu with a small family in mind:
Slow-Cooker Turkey Breast and Gravy
Brown Butter Green Beans with Almonds
Roasted Butternut Squash Puree with Ginger
Cranberry Orange Upside Down Cake with Grand Marnier Whipped Cream
I hope you have fun with the contest!
