Looking for the perfect dish for your Thanksgiving spread? The team at Timbercreek Communities has you covered with their very own personal picks for a fantastic Thanksgiving meal!
Cranberry Sauce
For Timbercreek Communities President, David Melo, no Thanksgiving table is complete without cranberry sauce. This jellied side is best paired with a perfectly roasted turkey or mashed sweet potatoes. Already have this classic on your holiday lineup? Up your game with this cranberry sauce recipe that incorporates a touch of high-quality local wine.
Gravy
Don’t forget the gravy! Sylvia Scott, our Sales & Leasing Director, adds it to just about everything on Thanksgiving -- except the pumpkin pie of course. This mouthwatering gravy recipe can be made with meat drippings from your main course, or chicken or turkey stock.
Stuffing
Candice Crawford, a Building Manager at Timbercreek Communities and Jeff Gorman, our National Maintenance Manager agree that stuffing is the unsung hero of the holiday. This side dish can be made to accommodate eating restrictions and preferences. For example, use just nine ingredients to make this Simple Vegan Stuffing.
Wild Blueberry Pie
Jerry Forrester, one of our Building Managers, can’t wait to dig into some Wild Blueberry Pie this week. When it comes to Thanksgiving desserts, saving room is key.
Pierogi & Sausage
Pierogis are a delicious dumpling that originated in Eastern Europe. Chris Adamiec Timbercreek’s IT Manager recommends adding them to your holiday menu. Pair them with your favourite brand of kielbasa sausage or sour cream.
Glazed Ham with Spicy Horseradish
Steven Royiwsky, who oversees our Quality Assurance & Special Projects, suggests pairing glazed ham with spicy horseradish for a holiday dinner your family will request year after year. This Glazed Ham with Horseradish Cream recipe from Martha Stewart is a decadent must try.
Sweet Potato Pie
Who could forget Sweet Potato Pie at Thanksgiving? Property Administration Supervisor, Tina Choy, adores it. If you’ve never tried it, sweet potato pie is sweeter than pumpkin pie and just as rich and creamy.
We hope you love these cherished Thanksgiving recipes from the team at Timbercreek Communities!
Which of today’s recipes will make it onto your table this weekend?
Don’t forget to spend some time reflecting on what you, your family and friends are most thankful for this season. Wendy Adams, Halifax Regional Manager, saves room for gratitude every year by asking the little ones at her table to write down what they are thankful for, keeping them for later reading once they are older.
