Best Thanksgiving Recipes from STWS Team
ur homes with warmth and comfort. It’s that time of year when we pause to appreciate the traditions that make the holidays feel truly special. At Serving Those Who Serve, we value the stories and recipes that connect us to our past and those we love. In the spirit of gratitude, we asked some of our team members to share their favorite holiday dishes and the memories behind them.
Jennifer Meyer, our Financial Planner, keeps it classic with turkey, stuffing, and plenty of gravy. For her, this annual feast never fails to feel like a special occasion.
Dan Sipe, our Partner and Co-Founder, spices things up with Cajun Fried Turkey. His insider tip? Inject Cajun butter marinade for a flavorful twist that’s sure to impress. Just be prepared for fewer leftovers!
Matt Kramer, another Financial Planner, honors his late mother-in-law’s legacy by enjoying lobsters for lunch and shrimp curry for dinner. These unconventional choices remind him of her warmth and love every year.
Marty Olson, our Executive Assistant, cherishes an apple cake recipe that has been a part of her life since her teenage years. Baking with Stayman apples, Marty fills her home with the scent of the holidays, adding a touch of sweetness to the season.
Joining in, Marty’s brother says, “That apple cake is FIRE!”
Chelsea English, our Relationship Manager, has turned Mushroom Wellington into a Thanksgiving tradition. This hearty and flavorful dish has won over her family, even those who don’t eat meat or dairy.
Gentry Payan Foreman, our Client Service Associate, raves about homemade pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Originally a holiday treat, they’ve become a year-round favorite after the family learned to bake them themselves.
Katelyn Murray, our Director of Relationship Management, treasures her grandmother’s sweet potato casserole recipe. Passed down through generations, this dish keeps her connected to her roots and brings comfort to her family, especially her brother who took a taste of home with him to college.
As you plan your own Thanksgiving menu, we hope these stories inspire you to add a new dish to your table this year. Each recipe carries with it a piece of family history and tradition, making the holiday season even more special.
Remember, all of the information we share comes from reliable sources, but we always recommend consulting with a financial advisor to tailor your investments to your unique situation. And while we may not be able to offer tax or legal advice, we encourage you to seek out professionals in those areas as needed.
Happy Thanksgiving from Serving Those Who Serve!
