My Thanksgiving 2020 MENU

So about a week before Thanksgiving my holiday meal plans are refined and finalized. I had already reviewed some of my favorite books to find inspiration for this year’s menu. Now, it was time to make selections. I find recipes of some favorites, such as Apple Beet Salad in Martha Stewart‘s Hors D’ Oeuvres Handbook, recipes for great dips, vegetable canapées, ideas about presentation of Appetizers.

One of my other favorites is Williams-Sonoma Entertaining Inspired Menus for Cooking with Family and Friends.

The day before I had already prepared the desserts, the cranberry sauce, the demi-glaze chicken sauce, selected some cheeses, now it was time to cook the menu.

I share our menu with you. Be inspired,

Enjoy,

Jasmin
