-New Urban YUM! 2, 4, 6, 8, Birds You Can Appreciate! Share Thanksgiving Dinner with Your German Friends with These Easy Turkey Recipes


The end of November is nigh, and you may be feeling nostalgic for some cozy moments of Thanksgiving love & gratitude before we dive headfirst into the sparkle, lights, hectic pace of Germany's yuletide season.  If you were looking to have a friend (or two, or a crowd) over to share American Thanksgiving,  but haven't gotten your menu down pat, NUY 40+ has got you covered.  With turkey widely on sale at most German markets this week, we've got options to introduce your German friends to an American Thanksgiving with traditional and contemporary approaches to our mother country's favorite holiday fowl. Check out our time & taste-tested curation of turkey recipes below - whether the table is set for 2, 4, 6, or 8 - these easy, mouthwatering recipes earn their keep as the star centers of attraction on any holiday table, for Thanksgiving and beyond.

A TABLE FOR 2
Perfect for the spontaneous dinner for 2-4, and can be easily halved if you're only a duo at the dinner table. We serve ours with a side of peppercorn gravy:  LEMON THYME PAN SEARED TURKEY BREAST from Flavor Mosaic

A FUN DINNER FOR 4
A simply succulent  & casual approach to satisfying your craving for "bone in" turkey, without the endless leftovers: while 4 legs can feed up to 6 dinner guests, this recipe also works well with a turkey hindquarter that weighs 1.5 -2 kg. , an amount which we've found is adequate for 4 people: MAPLE HERB ROASTED TURKEY LEGS from Pure Wow!

STYLISH SERVINGS FOR 6
Use frozen chopped spinach as a time saver in this quick-cooking SPINACH & RICOTTA TURKEY BREAST w/HERB GARLIC SAUCE from A CHEF'S KITCHEN

TRADITIONAL WITH A TWIST FOR A CROWD OF 8
 When you've already got a whole bird defrosting in the fridge,  want to try something new, but don't quite know what to do: if you don't want to risk your bird turning out dry and flavorless, on Wednesday night, start marinating this PEAR BRINED THYME TURKEY from Country Living for easy roasting on Thursday, to greet a crowd of 8+. We guarantee applause for your efforts!


Join us for the next YUM! as we move from talking turkey to exploring the easiest, breeziest mix & match sides for you American expat Thanksgiving. Til then,

Happy Prepping!
