Greetings!

Thanksgiving is over chronologically, but is it really ever over?...

I THINK NOT!!!

The leftovers alone should keep you in food for at least a week.
Try converting some of those delectables into gourmet entrees, sandwiches, stews, sauces, dips, etc. The sky's the limit.

Just when we've finished with the one holiday break, we find ourselves on the brink of another.

I'm looking forward to this one...
and you should be too! ;-)

FOOD TIP:
----------------------------

Sauteed onions can transform a multitude of leftover dishes into culinary masterpieces. Saute with seasonings, add other food once onions are see through/translucent. Toss and heat through, garnish and serve.

RECAP

- Took a much needed trip down south for Thanksgiving. We had a ball and the food was OFF-THE-CHAIN!!! It was a flexitarian table where there was truly something for everyone and everybody was satisfied. Awesome! Sweet Potato Pie, Glazed Tofu & Greens, Candied Yams, Turkey-less Multi-Grain Bread Stuffing, Mediterranean Greens, Garlic Ginger Cranberry Sauce, Mashed Potatoes, Vegetable platter with Homemade dipping sauce, Hibiscus Iced Tea, Mac & Cheese, Coconut Ginger Lemon Lime Maple Honey Ice Cream.

so, without further ado...
