Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
It's a shame that I didn't see this vegan turkey recipe before I tried making the rather... interesting... Tofurkey shortly before this past Thanksgiving. The Tofurkey was a tofu-based "roast" with a wild rice stuffing and a faux-giblet gravy on the side. The vegan turkey from Two Vegan sisters almost reverses the order of ingredients, ending up with something that sounds much more appetizing. At the center of their "turkey," they used seitan, a wheat-based meat substitute, and covered it in a layer of stuffing that was shaped into a turkey-like mass and had turkey/stuffing legs added. The whole construction was covered with a layer of homemade (vegan) puff pastry and baked until golden. A turkey and stuffing savory pastry? It seems hard to go wrong with that!
And if you're not a vegan, this idea could still work for you. I can picture sausages or even real turkey in the center of this faux bird. It would certainly be an interesting take on the traditional bird at your next family dinner!

You're making me want to do next Thanksgiving as barbecued turkey burgers with cranberry relish on "buns" made of stuffing, though, so kudos for new approaches to the menu.

Carrie: because it's fun, of course! And meat tastes nice!
And on that note, I present to y'all my own Thanksgiving experiment, the Quurkey: http://flickr.com/photos/99996214@N00/304990187/
