I want to give thanks to you, my readers, my friends. Thank you for your comments, and emails, for following the blog, for buying the cookbook, for giving me such joy and fulfillment. Helping people create food that they love makes me so grateful for this life. We are so blessed to be overcoming so many odds.
This Thanksgiving we are keeping it simple, and skipping the turkey. I know we could get a heritage turkey that isn't deformed and is able to breed on it's own, but they cost a fortune, and I'm too creeped out by the most common turkey. Instead, we are having Stuffed Red Peppers. So there will still be meat, which my husband and kids love, but not the traditional turkey.
There is also a theme running through my holiday menu: Beans. The salad dressing, stuffed peppers, and cake are all made of beans. I did this to make the cooking simpler and faster, and also because beans are so inexpensive. Click for the recipes:

I am equally blessed by your blog that I go to every day for inspiration and to read about your lovely children. There is so much on the web that is not suitable and it is nice to read about such a happy family like yours. I hope you and yours have a Happy Thanksgiving. We are having dinner with the fam and then going camping.

I can't believe your girls will eat stuffed peppers - how great is that!
Did you paint the pumpkin? It's so pretty.
That sounds like a great meal. Enjoy your week!

Hey, if you want some other great recipe ideas. I found this woman by the name Rose Cole, she's a certified nutrition coach and she has awesome Holiday Recipes that are gluten free. Her site is www.RoseCole.com/HolidayCookbook. I highly recommend checking it out!
Thank you Jenny! Have fun!

Looks so delicious! Have a fabulous Thanksgiving =D.
Thanks Lauren! You too!
I just had to provide this link and share these recipes with my readers. Thanks for putting this great list together!
I agree with Jenny that we are equally blessed to have your inspiration!! Your recipes have really changed my life! When I first went GFCF I hates cooking and baking bc it seemed to be all about what I couldn't have. After finding your website a few months ago, all of that has completely changed. This Thanksgiving I made the stuffed red peppers and everyone loved them so much that they didn't even remember that it was my "special food."
Thank you for blogging and publishing your cookbook!
Thank you so much!
