I asked our chef, Cameron Wilson to come up with a new Holiday Turkey Dinner. I didn’t want the same old – same old menu. I wanted a new menu that reflects the new higher emphasis we have placed on the food here at Lifestyles Catering.
Here is the menu that he put together, when we tried it, it was FANTASTIC!!! The Cajun Spices on Turkey are mellowed out by the Sweet Potato Gravy and the sides bring it home with great flavors of the autumn harvest season. Finally, Connie our Queen of the desserts, pulled out variations on Apple Pie and the traditional Pumpkin Pie, twisting it around to be a Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting.
Hope you enjoy your holidays
