To serve for Thanksgiving. I usually make brown sugar carrots but I want to do something different this year. Any ideas?
Re: I need a veggie
I'm doing cream-style corn. But you could do a corn casserole.
Here's Paula Deen's recipe Looks pretty easy.

I only do green bean casserole but I once did a Food Network version that was healthier that was fresh green beans with those little tiny onion thingies...people liked it
My aunt does a twice baked sweet potato with marshmallows on top that's good.
Creamed corn is a good one
I was about to post salad too. Thanksgiving is so "heavy" to me. I like to have a salad so I feel like I'm eating something fresh. Cranberries would be good- you could do craisins with feta and roasted pine nuts.
We're making this Brussel Sprout Hash with Carmelized Shallots and Bacon

I third Brussles sprouts. I cut them in half and put them is a pan with butter, wait for it to start to brown, add a splash of water and cover it and let the water seep in. Add a touch of salt and pepper and another pat of butter and YUM!
Also good is steamed green beans, sauteed in a touch of EVOO and garlic. Add toasted pine nuts and raisins and presto! It sounds odd, but it's a huge hit.
