You’re not a total rebel because you put pumpkin in your sauce! Great idea, btw - looks really tasty.

One year I made a lasagna. Everyone was mad at me but I didn’t care. It was delicious. Still probably my best Thanksgiving “feast” ever.

Oh, SNAP! That sounds awesome. You can be a rebel anytime if you’re going to post tomatoes-with-a-kick recipes :-) I was just talking with my husband about how a lot of Thanksgiving foods are too bland, so this was a welcome find!

Sounds good! One year for Thanksgiving, I had guacamole and pita chips. It hit the spot! I think thanksgiving should be about eating whatever sounds good to you that night.

That sounds great! I volunteer to serve a free meal at a community center every year, and believe me, the last thing I want when I get home is to cook more “thanksgiving” food! This year I made homemade “refried” beans with tons of cilantro–far from your traditional fare…
