Thanksgiving, it was like 2 months ago, right? Okay, so it was really last week but holy cats Batman, turkey day seems like it happened ages ago to me. I had hoped to stay clear of any sort of store last week and luckily I already had all the ingredients I needed so I didn’t have to venture out into the madness and crowds.
Leading up to the big day we ate a lot of pasta for some strange reason. I didn’t plan it that way but every time I opened the pantry those adorable fettuccine nests from Costco were staring back at me. I also made a batch of Nutella and Banana Muffins, another {plain} pasta dish, homemade turkey soup, and of course there were all those Thanksgiving leftovers that took 3 days to gobble up.
The Girl made her turkey and as usual, it was perfect.
My gravy HAS to rest in the center of the mashed potatoes…. Does yours?
With no trips to the grocery store and it being Thanksgiving week and all, I don’t have too much to report. But one night The HH did come home with a couple of pieces of salmon a client gave him… so that was pretty exciting.
Now that all the leftovers are gone it’s time to get cooking again.
On my list of things I plan to make this week:
- Quinoa Salad with Feta {I’ll have to modify it since I don’t have spinach}
- Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Sheet pan salmon and green beans
- Sausage and broccoli quiche
- Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- Tater Tot Casserole {freezer meal}
How about YOU? Are all your leftovers gone? Did you have a happy Thanksgiving? Was it simple this year {ours was} or a big event? I’d love to hear about it.
