HHB I can only imagine that you're thanks giving is going to be a FEAST, if your normal dinners are any indication. LOL

:cheers2:

 

I see it now, and oysters and anchovies.
I guess I expected to see it at the top of the list.

 

I love food so much. More so, I love Family Dinners.

 

make flour out of acorns,take a 1/2 cup of the flour,mix with the innards of a butternut squash,a egg a little salt an pepper.

make into patties and fry till golden brown..

in regard to the acorns,they must be properly processed to remove the tannins before you make flour out of them.lest ye get REAL sick..

there are actually a lot of delicious ways to prepare acorns,thats just one tasty example..

 

I've never eaten an acorn

 

well it will just be 3 of us and we are on a depression diet.. so it probably wont be to special..

probably have some homemade sourdough rolls with it but that will be the basic menu..

i know we are having goat because we have two little boys who will be just right for slaughter about then....

 

weve collected a couple hundred pounds this year to supplement our flour and add to our protein intake..
if your interested heres all ya need to know..

When you talked about collecting acorns before, I thought you were being facetious. I had no idea.

Me and Honeysuckleblue were trying to figure out how to do this festival with the least amount of tugging food and such.....perhaps we should gather acorns when we get there

 

That sounds greast. I am cooking thanksgiving dinner and need to start picking out recipes....erhmmmm maybe I'll just make what tyou're making?

 

Acorns are a reliable source of carbohydrates, protein, 6 vitamins, 8 minerals, and 18 amino acids, and they are lower in fat than most other nuts. One handful of acorns is equivalent in nutrition to a pound of fresh hamburger.


this is fascinating to me! I had NO idea.

 

Im making dinner again this year since my sister will have a brand new baby.
I am making cornbread stuffing from scratch, smoking the turkey with pecan wood, olive oil mashed potatoes, yellow squash casserole, brown gravy and sweet potato leek soup. for dessert.. sweet potato pie.
