Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I had a little unplanned surgery and that affected cooking and dining for a bit, but I have a few dinners to post.
Chicken and dumplings. I’m a southerner who didn’t grow up with this dish. My first time making and second time eating it.
Some Christmas dinner. Starting at the top and clockwise: roasted butternut squash, baked Mac n cheese, pot roast, baby limas, rice dressing, garlic knot in the center. Ham, not pictured.
Christmas dinner leftovers. Ham and mac n cheese.
More ham leftovers, used in fried rice.
The final use of the ham! Ham bone used in fifteen bean soup.
Hamburger salad. (Burger chopped prior to eating.)
No pictures of New Year’s dinner, but for good luck we had Hoppin John with smoked sausage, cabbage and tasso, cornbread.
