What's your week of leftovers looking like? Got any recipes to share? Tomorrow's the last day of turkey and fixin's for us; the amount of gravy I just put on my meal could and probably should be prosecuted under an obscenity law. Then it's turkey veggie soup from the carcass, with cream-of-wheat dumplings. We also have bacon-and-shallot-stuffed sausages (wrapped in bacon), and later we will make a traditional (German and Nordic) split pea soup with bacon and served with sausages. Always on a Thursday.
My favorite is an old Thanksgiving standby, turkey, mashed potato & stuffing sandwich on whatever bread we had too much of. With an (un )healthy amount of gravy to top it off. It is generally eaten while watching some sporting event on TV and being barely able to move.
The cookies came to work yesterday and are nearly gone this morning. We are finally digging out of leftover-ville at home and I hope to be back to some semblence of normal by 2012. 10 lbs added on in the past month is NOT good. |
