I had other plans on what I was going to cook this week. I have some turkey legs I need to use up. I am still working through some meat that was in the broken freezer. I was originally going to do chicken and dumplings. I still will. However, I watched an episode from Middle [...]
As I have done in years past, I take the dark meat from a whole turkey and make it into a stew. Usually I cook the breast portion for Thanksgiving. This year, I didn't get the chance because I was too busy. However, I did find a low sodium whole turkey that I am cooking [...]
I hope you had a socially distanced Thanksgiving. I know it's not been ideal, but I can safely say you want your family to be around for future holidays. Our small group quarantined for 14 days and did single serving dishes and kept our distance on the day of. My mother didn't come down to [...]
Right now I am back to cleaning cluttered spaces. We have two sheds that got VERY cluttered before by in-laws moved out. Since this house is Tony's childhood home, cleaning out this part will be hard for him. Since his Dad passed away, there are many memories in the stuff. This leads to keeping too [...]
This week I wanted something simple and comforting. I haven't done too many recipes for chili so far, but I found one I had to try. Our lives have been pretty busy lately, but we took some time to visit our families (socially distanced, of course). Make sure when you visit your loved ones, you [...]
Now that I have that lovely turkey frame, I needed something fun to do with it. I am surprised I never though of Pho. Pho (that's pronounced like duh, not like go) is a great brothy comforting soup that is spicy and meaty and perfect for a turkey frame. When looking for a recipe to [...]
I decided to take a turkey out of the freezer this week. I have two turkeys in my freezer. It was hard to pass up 37 cents a pound around Thanksgiving. Now I need to make space. A turkey takes a lot of space. I am going to start out by deconstructing the turkey. If [...]
So I decided to do something a bit different with the turkey frame from the Thanksgiving turkey breast. I have already made two soups that are more standard: Turkey Lentil Soup and Turkey Split Pea Soup with Broccoli. Now I want to change it up a bit to something out of the ordinary. Not to [...]
Thanksgiving is next Thursday and I figured it would be good to share with you what I plan to make. I've been the person that cooks for the past few years and I try to mix healthy with a little naughty for the menu. If you are in the process of losing weight you may [...]
Ok. Now most of you have made this type of recipe. Ground beef with a couple of cans of condensed soup. This is very convenient, especially for busy people. I've made many myself when I was younger. However, if you are watching your health, it can be a nutritional nightmare. Condensed soup contains a lot [...]
