This past Sunday was our Thanksgiving. We call it 'Breensgiving' as it is the Sunday our family gets together to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. I used to make all the food but several years ago I decided to let the other family members help. I send out an Evite a few weeks prior and provide a list of possible things to bring. I do provide the meat course. This year I made Crockpot Brown Sugar Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin. It was nice because I didn't need oven space for it. I also made a turkey breast for those turkey lovers.

I also needed to provide an appetizer and one side dish. I made Baked Bacon Cheese Dip. It was really yummy. The recipe more than filled the bread I had so I used a small casserole dish to bake the extra. Maybe if I make it again I would have two loaves of bread. I prepped everything the night before so I just had to bake it before the guests arrived.

After finding out my daughter was making mashed potatoes and my daughter-in-law was making honey glazed carrots, I chose to make Twice Baked Butternut Squash as the third side dish. Again, another yummy recipe. I did bake the squash the night before and make the filling. I refilled the shells and then refrigerated everything overnight. I pulled them out in the morning to warm up and then baked them the second time just before eating.
