Recipe Friday: Thanksgiving Turkey



Ok, this isn't really a recipe for a Thanksgiving turkey, but it might be an actual Thanksgiving turkey!  I got an email from Slow Food USA and it has a Thanksgiving quiz about the foods traditionally used to make Thanksgiving dinner.

 "If you're celebrating Thanksgiving and reading this right now, chances are good that you do your best to enjoy a thoughtful — not just full full — holiday. It isn't easy — but we can help! Take our quiz to find out how to make sure you're preparing a meal that is as good, clean and fair as possible. AND, every day until November 20, we'll draw a name from our quiz-takers to receive a turkey from a farm that has achieved certification to Global Animal Partnership's 5-Step™ Animal Welfare Rating from your neighborhood Whole Foods Market."


You take a short little quiz (5 multiple choice questions) about which foods are best (canned VS fresh cranberries, stuffing ingredients, local VS mass produced bird) to use in your Thanksgiving meal and learn a few fun tidbits along the way.  (Did you know there used to be a parade in honor of a sweet potato?!?)  It's just a fun little way to keep focused on healthy eating this Thanksgiving!  Gobble Gobble!  (Or Cock-A-Doodle-Doo as Vince says!  He's a little confused on Turkey VS Chicken.  Also a little scared of both at the Stark County Fair this summer!)

Now THAT'S a tofu turkey!
