Meghan Markle gives insight into her and Prince Harry’s Thanksgiving in new interview
Meghan Markle is all excited to celebrate Thanksgiving with her loved ones. She recently shared about her preparations with PEOPLE, giving insight into her Thanksgiving celebration. And while speaking to the outlet, the duchess even shared Prince Harry’s favourite holiday dish.
During the interview, she shared a hack to make a delicious dish with carrots. The founder of the As Ever lifestyle brand said, “Top tip on the carrots — keep the tops and blend them with parmesan, olive oil and pine nuts for a refreshing take on pesto to elevate your holiday spread.”
She then revealed that Harry’s favorite meal of the day is a rich gravy, which she serves along with carrot pesto and other dishes. “Served with creamy mashed potatoes, a green salad speckled with flower sprinkles and rich gravy (my husband would never forgive me if I didn’t add that to the table), this is sure to please your entire gathering,” she added.
Sharing more tips for preparing for the big day, the mom of two suggested to “chop your veggies and herbs in advance to save time on the day, and also for those finishing touches, whether you’re serving homemade or store-bought dishes.” She even advised to let the kids “join in too! They can proudly say they helped.”
And to set the vibe for the evening, the 44-year-old star suggested to “light” scented candles “to set the mood in the living areas and unscented for the kitchen (in those spaces, let the fragrance of the food shine).” Additionally, welcoming guests “with drinks” and “easy appetizers” and setting out “puzzles or board games” is a great way to “make everyone feel comfortable and cared for,” feels Markle.
The “Suits” star, who is busy with the preparations, will soon be seen in the festive special, “With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration.” The show will premiere on Netflix on December 3.
