My daughter brought home from preschool a book of recipes for Thanksgiving that were simply too good not to share. The teacher asked each child how to make a particular dish, here are the answers, exactly as the child responded (BTW, our little girl had the honor of coming up with the recipe for the turkey):
Turkey: Take a turkey and put it in a pot Put boiling water with it With a fork mash it up When it is done take it out of the pan and put it on a big plate on the table Cut it and eat
Mashed Potatoes: Wash potatoes in the sink Cook whole potatoes in a hot oven, faster and faster and faster Eat it with your teeth
Gravy: Take some oranges, watermelon, strawberiies, and orange juice Cook them in a bowl for 30 minutes Pass them out and pour over the potatoes
Stuffing: Take some green beans, some macaroni and some steak Cook it in the kitchen Bake the stuffing in a pan for 10 minutes
Cranberry Sauce: Take some cranberries, apple sauce, apples and some potatoes Cook them in the oven until it dings Then we eat it!!
Rolls: Put corn, frosting and sprinkles in a bowl or a dish Get a knife and cut it in half Roll up the dough. Put it in a pan and put it in the hot oven Bake it for 50 seconds Eat it when it is warm
Fruit Salad: You get some fruit from my house-lettuce, plums and bananas Wash it all, and cook it in the kitchen where grandma painted the wall yellow Use a silver knife to cut it and a fork to eat it with I like bacon in my salad
Sweet Potatoes: Use orange stuff with black stuff in it Put crunchy things in it Cook them in a hot oven forever until the timer goes off
Vegetables: 1 carrot, 3 grapes, 2 potatoes, 4 pieces of corn Cook them in the pot for 25 hours Eat them with your best manners and your mouth closed Do not talk with your mouth full!!
Apple Pie: Put some apples and some apple dough in the pie Use some milk and sugar so the dough will not get on the rolling pin Put some more apples and a little pepper in the pir Bake for 6 minutes on top of the stove Use a fork to eat it and don't chew with your mouth open
Salad: We need potatoes, tomatoes and strawberries Cook them in the oven until we are finished playing with the toys Put red flowers on it and eat
Pumpkin Pie: Flour, eggs, pumpkins, milk, chocolate pudding Crack the eggs, stir it. Pour milk in. Cut the pumpkins Cook it in a kind of hot oven for 6 minutes You can put in 1 teaspoon more flour Use a fork or spoon to eat!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate it!
Edit: Just to make sure it is clear, the recipe for each menu item was given by a different child. Our daughter only did the turkey.

Is it just me, or did she come a lot closer to the real ingredients for apple pie than she did with the other parts of the menu? Guess we know which part of the meal she looks forward to the most.
