Week 2: Where and what to eat on holiday
It’s the second week of your holiday plan. We hope you’ll check out our guest list, menu, and venue. According to GFC’s Ultimate Thanksgiving and Holiday Planning guide, the total number of confirmed guests, a list of food allergies, dietary requirements, and requests will tell you what to serve where.
This article will focus on menu options, but you should decide now if you’re comfortable hosting guests, and if not, look elsewhere. As an event host, we recommend asking a relative with a larger house, Airbnb, or a low-cost community her room. However, if you’re on a budget, it may not be too late to host your holiday celebration at a local restaurant and let them do all the cooking and cleaning. Maybe not, but spending time with friends and family: PhillyEater.com has a list of places, some offering holiday-themed menus.
Now that we’ve covered the venue, let’s get back to the menu.
In our #APP article, we have provided and provided links to Wide Open Eats turkey and alternative protein or poultry plan options.
- A hearty roasted vegetable dish as an alternative to stuffing. Kichn.com offers five gluten-free stuffing alternatives, including using wild and white rice, roasted vegetables, cornbread, and quinoa.We recommend using whipped sweet potatoes or cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes, which require butter and milk to achieve a creamy texture.
For low- or sugar-free, dairy, and gluten-free cakes, pies, and desserts, you have several options.
