5、植玉米、南瓜。在印第安人的幫助下，移民們獲得了豐收，在歡慶豐收的日子，按照宗教傳統(tǒng)習(xí)俗，移民規(guī)定了感謝上帝的日子，并邀請他們一同慶祝節(jié)日。parade感恩節(jié)食物第一次感恩節(jié)的菜譜包括1.Cornbread - 玉米面包2.English Cheese Pie - 英國奶酪派3.Venison - 鹿肉，Ducks & Geese - 鴨和鵝，Wild Turkey - 野生火雞， Garlic and Onions - 大蒜和洋蔥。4.Pumpkin Pudding - 南瓜布丁， Indian Pudding - 印地安布丁，Salad-沙拉。pepperThanksgivingovenpl
