I thought it might be fun to share some favorite gluten-free Thanksgiving favorites.  Or ask for help making an old favorite from BC ( before Celiac) into a gluten-free recipe. Or maybe you have found a new recipe you are going to try and would like to share?

Here is a recipe I am going to make- 

Scalloped sweet potatoes and Granny Smith apples.

Thanksgiving turkey and Gravy + Dressing recipe

Mix up a butter marinade substitute, of 1/2 cup coconut oil, zest and juice of 1 lemon 4 cloves of garlic pressed, salt, pepper, and a hand full of parsley chopped. fridge this for a bit to thicken to a butter consistency.

Take your turkey rub this underneath the skin coming up from the neck over the breast. Pressing it all over, and spread it over the outside of the bird liberally. Proceed to stuff the turkey with salt pepper 2 halved onions, 1 halved lemon, and 3-4 bay leaves. Top turkey with 5-8 strips of maple bacon/turkey bacon, over the legs and breast. Place turkey in a turkey bag and bake for time required for your turkeys weight,

Remove the turkey, moving the turkey to a platter to let it set, turkey needs to set for as long as you bake it.
Taking roasting pan removed the excess oil leaving just the broth. place over stove and simmer. Add your onions, bacon, lemon, and the tid bits like your tail, neck skin, wing tips from the turkey all chopped into this, Add a fresh sprig of rosemary 3 chopped roma tomatoes and simmer crushing everything with a press or back of a spatula, stirring and simmering.

After setting your turkey you can proceed to carve and serve it.

240g Almond Milk (Milk of Choice will work here)

1 medium Onion
1-2 tbsp oil
2 cloves of garlic
12oz of mushrooms

2 bags steamfresh brown rice or 4-6 cups of cooked rice of choice

And for Desert my Crust-In Pumpkin pie

45g coconut sugar
Pinch of pure stevia
1 can pumpkin puree

1tbsp ground flax
2 tsp vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 400F and spray a 8" pie pan with oil

3. In a separate bowl, combine all the liquid ingreditns with the flax and whisk well.
4. Pour wet into dry and stir well to combine, then pour into pan and set for 10mins and bake 35mins
5. Transfer to the fridge to allow it to set up 8-12 hours or overnight

And my Grandmas Sweet Potatoes where I place coined boiled sweet potatoes in a baking pan pour in enough high pulp orange juice to cover them and sprinkle with cinnamon and coconut sugar and bake for 20-30mins before giving it a rough mash.

I do this and invite my parents and living grandparents over for thanksgiving dinner. They seem to enjoy it quite well last year. This year I am debating adding my Coconut Lemon Tannies and Turkey Bacon Green beans to the line up depending on who all is coming this year.
