November 25, 2011

Happy day after Thanksgiving!!! I hope you had a wonderful day with your friends and family yesterday. I must admit, I have no new recipes to offer this week. I hosted Thanksgiving dinner, and you know how it goes - all week I was planning and prepping for the main event this week. Dinner was great, and everything was cooked and ready at the same time (no small feat when serving quite a few different things). Even the from-scratch yeast rolls worked out! This was the first major holiday with my double oven, and it was great to have the ability to cook at two temperatures.

I don't have any recipes to use up your leftover turkey, because you likely don't have very much left. We have only a few pieces of turkey left in our fridge because everyone ate it for lunch today! We made homemade pizza tonight, and I did use a little turkey on mine as I created my bbq pizza (usually bbq sauce, pepper jack cheese, red onions and chicken). It worked perfectly. After lunch tomorrow I imagine the rest will be gone.

Now as this next week begins I am already trying to decide what to cook in the hopes that I have a couple of great keepers to share with you on Friday!
