Now THAT sounds yummy!!! I love gingerbread! Recipe???

It is, and it couldn't be easier!

Make a gingerbread. Crumble it and layer with whipped cream and vanilla pudding, ending with whipped cream. Top with crushed gingersnaps and a cherry.

If you want it to look decorative, you can line the trifle bowl with whole gingersnaps, too.

I've seen other recipes that include things like english toffee, pumpkin, fruit or liquer, but we like this particular trifle the simple way - plain.

Enjoy!

My childhood's traditional Thanksgiving menu(at least my favorites) in no order:

1)Turkey
2)Green bean casserole
3)Cornbread
4)Uncle Rick's mashed potatoes

Thanks! That certainly sounds easy enough.. I think DGD would enjoy making that - she's a big fan of anything lemon..

stuffing (not filling...but stuffing, made with celery, onions and Bell's poultry seasoning)

This is what I use for my stuffing - along with bread cubes and pork sausage.. Yum!!
