Thanksgiving Leftover Nachos
A few years ago, I had Thanksgiving dinner at Bobby Flay’s and the next day I called him up and said “hey, I need leftovers. Whatta ya got?” We were neighbors at the time, so I walked over and he made a big tray of nachos. He had served his mashed potatoes the day before with queso instead of gravy (this is only acceptable if you’re Bobby Flay IMHO) and he smothered the tray of turkey and brussel sprout-covered tortilla chips with that rich, creamy cheese sauce. I got one word for you: heavenly.
Turkey in 8 pieces
A couple weeks ago, I decided to test out a method that I’ve snubbed my nose at in the past – roasting the turkey in pieces. I’d been told in the past that cooking the turkey in pieces allows for more even cooking and reduces cooking time considerably. After my experiment, I can tell you, it’s yes to both of those claims. And, it’s a million times easier to carve.

On this week's episode of What Would Katie Eat? I am sharing my Spatchcock Ranch Turkey. (I had you at "ranch," right??)
Pumpkin Hummus
On Thanksgiving, it’s nice to have some nibbles before dinner, but I like to keep them light so everyone is really hungry for the main event. Pumpkin hummus is festive, colorful, and full of flavors of the season.
