Unusual Thanksgiving Dishes You Must Try This Holiday

Thanksgiving is fast approaching and it's time to come up with a menu. But what if you want to change things up? Here are four unusual thanksgiving dishes that will make you your dinner unforgettable.

1. Ham and Banana Casserole

2. Turkey Dinner Layer Cake

It sounds like one of those horrible recipes from the 50s, but Foodie and Chow.com contributor Amy Wisniewski assures readers this is the ultimate Thanksgiving meal. It looks like a cake but it has layers of stuffing and ground turkey mixed with instant oatmeal, “frosted” with mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes and topped with lightly browned mini marshmallows. I’m not sure about the marshmallows, but it doesn’t sound too bad.

3. Scalloped Oysters

Seafood is not the first food you think of when describing Thanksgiving, but if you want to get really fancy this year, why not try making Martha Stewart's Scalloped Oysters recipe. Looks pretty simple, but make sure your guests aren't allergic.

4. Thanksgiving Pizza


Pizza is basically America's staple food so why not include it in this holiday. Sue and Chel from We-are-not-Martha.com made an incredible pizza topped with thanksgiving favorites -- cranberry chutney, turkey, and gorgonzola cheese -- but also gave it a twist. At the center of it all, is an apple pie. Bless these two girls.


Have fun and enjoy Thanksgiving with your loved ones and remember to check with your guests for allergies before attempting any of these.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
