Thanksgiving Cassoulet

Hi all,

I was recently given 2 ducks by my cousin, and I'm thinking of ways to use it on Thanksgiving. I love cooking French food, and thought that cassoulet would be a welcome addition to our feast--it's rainy and cold here in California, and we will be having roughly 40 people at our celebration.

I'm trying to think of ways to make the cassoulet more Thanksgiving themed. One thought I had was to cook a thin layer of cranberry sauce on top, or a layer of simple stuffing on top instead of breadcrumbs. I can't find any similar recipes online. Any suggestions? Has anyone experimented with classic cassoulet?
