Here we are, four days after Thanksgiving, and we are STILL eating leftovers!! Thankfully, we polished them all off tonight.Witness our Butternut Squash and Creamed Spinach Gratin - given new life with a topping of freshly grated parmesan cheese and thrown under the broiler. The wild rice was still tasty, too, and only required a quick little reheat in the microwave.
Our protein tonight was not the flying kind. I've had enough of that for awhile. Instead, we had pork tenderloin marinated and purchased at our local neighborhood grocery store. It's one of our favorite midweek meals since most of the work is done for us - we just throw it on the grill for 10-12 minutes and voila! Dinner!
I must say, however, that a quickly and easily prepared dinner is not nearly as exciting as finally finishing all of our Thanksgiving fare. Time to start planning the next holiday. Any recommendations for Christmas dinner?

Kudos again to your hubby for those fabulous grill marks. Didn't want him to think they went unnoticed! Tehy are something I only dream about in my NYC apt with no outdoor space.
ReplyDeleteLeftovers are wonderful when the initial preparation was as outstanding as yours.
