DEL.ICIO.USWhat’s your favorite Thanksgiving recipe?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It’s not Thanksgiving without pound cake for my family. We take turns baking a recipe that my father brought home when I was a child. It’s one of the first recipes I prepared, and ones my sisters have taken up, too, because it’s so good.
There’s just one problem. Many years ago, we lost the original recipe. I jotted down the ingredients from memory, but couldn’t recall the mixing instructions, which were incredibly detailed. We still make the pound cake, but we’ve never been able to get the crust to that yummy, slightly chewy texture that it used to have.
Still, it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without the pound cake. Is there a must-have dish at your celebration? Share the recipe!

I’ll share one. While baking your ham, throw some new potatos, baby carrots and a chopped onion in the pan. Add a little garlic salt & a lot of black pepper. Cover the veggies in chicken broth and bake away. About 15 mins before taking out of the over, add butter for your veggie seasoning. This also makes a great side dish without the ham.
