DJ Livy B’S Thanksgiving Feast:

1. TURKEY

I think that the most important part of a Thanksgiving meal is the main course. My mom always makes Dr. Pepper Ham and my aunt brings Roasted Turkey, which is my favorite. I am not the biggest fan of ham. I am very much so a texture person and ham is just a little too fatty and chewy for me. I love the texture and taste of turkey so much, so it has to be ranked #1 in my Thanksgiving feast.

2. STUFFING

Next up we have what I would say is the 2nd most popular traditional Thanksgiving foods, stuffing. Now, I know some people like to make stuffing homemade, but my family has always made it from a box. This may be an unpopular opinion, but I think it tastes alot better that way. I love the taste of stuffing and how it compliments the rest of the meal so well. 

3. ROLLS

Okay, so I know that rolls are the most basic side to most holiday and regular meals, but this has always been one of the foods I most look forward to on Thanksgiving. My mom and I always get hawaiian rolls and put butter in them before baking them in the oven. We always make several packages of them because they are such a hit and everyone snacks on them while we wait for the other food to finish being prepared.

4. CHOCOLATE PIE

Now this is my all time favorite Thanksgiving dessert. My aunt makes the absolute BEST Chocolate pudding pie of all time. I have no idea how she makes it but it has a perfect balance between sweet and savory. 

5. MASHED POTATOES & GRAVY

Lastly we have the most basic side dish, Mashed potatoes and gravy, but I feel like you always need to have the ground work for a great meal and that is why I have mashed potatoes and gravy here. They are so useful. Say that someone brought a casserole or a turkey that’s a little too dry, just pour some gravy over it to give it some flavor. Also, there are those people out there who don’t like vegetables, but are forced to eat them during Thanksgiving and mixing these together is the perfect solution to make it easier to withstand. 

As we know, it's the time of year for the west side nut club fall festival. If you are like me, you love to walk around and try different foods from the trucks. There are 137 amazing food booths to choose from but as a vegetarian, it can be pretty hard to find food suitable for me. I will be sharing with you my vegetarian munchie map!

1. Booth 8 & 15

At booth number 8 & 15 you can find loaded cheese fries! These are deliciously seasoned cut potatoes with melted cheese and any toppings you would like to add. Personally, I like to add jalapenos for a little extra spice. I think that potatoes are an amazing alternative for not mean eaters because of the vitamins and minerals that they contain.

2. Booth 136

At booth 136 you can find mac and cheese. Mac n cheese is a very good choice for vegetarians because they retain the nutritional components of the plants they're made from. Not only is each pasta a natural source of nutrients such as iron and calcium, but they're also excellent plant-based sources of complex carbs and protein.

3. Booth 52

If you are a big soup person, well then this booth is for you! Booth 52 contains Cheddar Broccoli soup which personally, is my favorite. Cheddar broccoli soup has so many health benefits overall such as improved digestion, reduced inflammation, and boosted immunity. You can also find egg drop soup at booth 122.

4. Booth 2 & 92

At these booths, you can find pizza! This is a great choice for vegetarians because there are so many meat substitutes on pizza such as veggies. Although, I am just a plain cheese fan.

5. Booth 133

This booth is for the people who like a little extra spice! At booth 133, you can find jalapeno popper grilled cheese sandwiches! I absolutely love jalapenos, Since these are peppers, jalapenos can promote gut health. Nethertheless, If you can't handle spice, this isn't the booth for you.

6. Booth 64 & 130

Lastly, at these boots you can find deep fried oreos! Who doesn't like oreos? I love these deep fried Oreos because they are soft. I would much rather have soft cookies rather than hard cookies.

That was my vegetarian munchie map!
