Robin, We had the standard turkey/stuffing, w/rice and gravy, sweet potato dish, cranberry, fruit salad, scalloped corn, dirty rice, cajun type chicken stew, mirliton soup w/shrimp, cajun type macaroni and cheese, rolls, wine. Part La. type meal and part NJ. Not really well balanced this year, as far as the food groups go. Ended up being my husband, the kids and me. So we skipped the salad and a few other dishes. For dessert we had Pecan, Pumpkin or Sweet Potato pie with coffee later on. We chose favorites and not healthiest this time. It was kind of a last minute thing as to whether other people were coming or not this year. First time in years that it has been just the four of us. Scalloped corn is a dish that we always had when growing up in NJ, along with scalloped oysters. If you are interested in the scalloped corn or scalloped oyster recipes, I will post it/them. We always ate the standard sweet potato with marshmallow topping, too. My dau's version is sweet potato with crunchy top and pecans. Very rich and I could eat that for a dessert. I really shouldn't eat another meal until Christmas. I am gaining more just talking about it on the list. Pat
