Powder Coating

Archive for November, 2009

I’m cooking my first Thanksgiving dinner for my small family - 3 people - and I’m trying to pick all our favorites. Mostly what I’m stuck on are the side-dishes & veggies. So far we’re planning:

Turkey (duh) gonna try to do the traditional oven-roasting thing …..
Dressing (in with the turkey I guess)
Corn & Green Bean Casserole
Stuffed Eggs
Potato Salad
Blueberry Cheesecake
Pecan Pie (w/vanilla icecream =)
(Sweet Potatoes w/ Marshmallows (maybe - seems like too many sweets ??)

Also if y’all have any recipes to share… I’ll get the ball rolling with:
Puppy Chow
Ingredients -
* 9 cups Chex® Cereal (either rice, wheat, chocolate or combine them)
* 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
* 1/2 cup peanut butter
* 1/4 cup butter or margarine
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
* 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Directions -
1. Into large bowl, measure cereal; set aside.
2. In 1-quart microwavable bowl, stir together chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter. Microwave uncovered on High 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Stir in vanilla. Pour mixture over cereal, stirring until evenly coated. Pour into 2-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag.
3. Add powdered sugar. Seal bag; shake until well coated. Spread on waxed paper to cool. Store in airtight container in refrigerator.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
Oops… yeah I forgot to list the cranberries but we’ll definitely have ‘em. Um, is stuffing the same as dressing? Mom always just called it "turkey & dressing".

Hey yeah - finger food tray - great idea!

I’m trying to decide between pecan or pumpkin pie.. leaning toward pecan ’cause I know that we want the blueberry cheesecake.

this year we are having:
turkey
stuffing
mashed potatoes
gravy
brussel sprouts
corn on the cob
dinner rolls
pumpkin pie
dutch apple pie

I would gladly share a recipe with you but all my recipes are in my other computer which isn’t working right. I will have to dig through all of my old papers to look for my Grandma’s dutch apple pie recipe.
