Party Recipe: Alternative Thanksgiving

Gourmet this month has a great feature with recipes for different types of Thanksgiving celebrations. My favorite was the menu designed for four guests to celebrate.

The best part was replacing the traditional roast turkey with a stuffed turkey roulade. I love cooking up pork loin roulades for dinner parties because it is so easy and looks so impressive. I imagine it would produce a very tasty turkey dish as well! The rest of the menu is equally fun; including carrot soup, creamed leeks and miniature chocolate cakes. I recommend that Jean tries it for her Thanksgiving this year!

I would probably replace the chicken livers with chestnuts as they recommend at the bottom.
