Inset: Getty Images For Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, the holidays are all about family time — and good food! The couple continued their Thanksgiving tradition of the past few years and returned to Shelton’s Lake Texoma, Oklahoma property to celebrate the holiday, but this time around, they added a very special dish to the menu: a turkey covered with Funyuns. While documenting the cooking process, Stefani, 50, explained that the idea to make the turkey came from her 5-year-old son Apollo. “Apollo, what’s happening? Explain how you thought of this idea,” she said, as her son replied, “because everyone loves Funyuns in this family.” However, there seemed to be a bit of a miscommunication on who would be making the turkey. “Blake is,” said Apollo. But then the country crooner, 43, pointed towards the child and playfully replied, “No, you are.” Gwen Stefani/Instagram Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton Talk Thanksgiving Traditions: ‘We All Cook Together’ In addition to being covered in the delicious onion-flavored snack food, Shelton — who was ultimately put in charge — also added some chips inside the bird. In a photo of the finished product, a label for the menu item read, “I am thankful for Funyun turkey.” Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton’s Thanksgiving. Gwen Stefani/Instagram Apollo.
