Happy Thanksgiving and recipes




Happy Thanksgiving. I get the idea that every American woman is supposed to know how to put on a beautiful, delicious Thanksgiving dinner. Since I am still a student in the cooking department (I am known to treat my husband as a god, I serve him burnt offerings 3 times a day LOL) I need all the cooking help I can get. I get a lot of my recipes from ALL Recipes.com . and Taste of Home magazine.
Here is the Menu for Thursday at the Stedmans
Turkey
Stuffing
Gravy
Green Bean Casserole
sweet potatoes with marshmallow
Dessert: Pumpkin pie and Cheesecake
Here is the recipe I am using for the Cheesecake from Allrecipes.com  and some other recipes of my own.


Easy Sour Cream Cheesecake
Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9 inch cheesecake

Ingredients

1 (9 inch) prepared shortbread pie crust
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 cup white sugar
 2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
 1 cup sour cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Cream together cream cheese and sugar. Add eggs one at time, blending well. Add vanilla and sour cream. Pour into shortbread crust.

Bake for 60 to 70 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cake jiggles evenly across the top when lightly shaken. Run a knife around the outside edge, but leave the cake in the pan. Let cool on counter, then place in refrigerator. Remove from pan when completely chilled, and serve.


Crock Pot Sweet Potatoes
4-5 large sweet potatoes or yams, washed peeled and sliced
2 tbs butter in the bottom of the crock pot
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
Place all ingredients into crock pot and cook on low for 4-6 hours. Add marshmallows shortly before serving.

Ezekiel Bread stuffing
Begin saving small pieces and  ends of Ezekiel bread throughout the year, add them to a freezer bag, place in the freezer. The day before you want to use it, take the bag out of the freezer.
When thawed, tear up in pieces and add Ezekiel bread to pot of:
1 stick butter
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 small can of mushrooms
1 box seasoned stuffing mix
Heat and add extra water if needed. Cover with foil and chill overnight. Warm in the oven about 20 min on 300 and serve with gravy.
