My favorite family cooking traditions
Growing up my family would cook on a budget and I have incorporated that mentality into my cooking.
My cooking triumphs
Thanksgiving: Champagne Turkey, Sausage,Apple, & Cranberry stuffing, Blue Cranberry dressing, stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer. This was for 15 + people.
My cooking tragedies
Long before the Tofurky was made, a friend and I decided to make a stuffed tofu style tofurky. We had at least 15 packages of tofu that we tried molding it into a colander and then baking it. The whole thing obviously was a disaster and the saddest thing was that was the main dish. There were sad people that Thanksgiving.
