Four Foods on Friday 55

Posted by: Elizabeth on Friday, November 14th, 2008

Here are this week’s four questions. The theme this week is Thanksgiving.

#1. Stuffing. Boxed or from scratch?
#2. If you were served the perfect Thanksgiving dinner what would it be?
#3. What’s your favorite Thanksgiving leftover?
#4. Share a recipe using turkey.

#1- Boxed. I like Stove Top Cornbread stuffing, but if the store is out I use Chicken. Oddly, I don’t care for the taste of Stove Top Turkey stuffing.

#2- When I cook Thanksgiving dinner, I make MY perfect dinner! Turkey breast, mashed potatoes, stuffing, canned yams cut up and cooked in butter and brown sugar, and apple pie for dessert. Yum!

#3- I really like Thanksgiving leftovers. I can eat plates of turkey, potatoes, yams and stuffing warmed up for a good two or three meals.

#4-  TURKEY DIVAN

Casserole Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
2 cups milk (whole or 2% is best)
1/2 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing (light is okay, not fat free)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 boxes (9 oz each) frozen broccoli spears, thawed, drained
3 cups cubed cooked turkey
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (2 oz)

Topping Ingredients:
1/3 cup plain bread crumbs
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F. In 2-quart saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and bouillon granules. Gradually stir in milk, cooking and stirring constantly with wire whisk, until mixture boils and thickens. Stir in mayonnaise and mustard until well blended.
2. In ungreased 12×8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish, arrange broccoli spears. Top with chicken. Spoon sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with cheese.
3. In small bowl, mix topping ingredients; sprinkle over top. Bake about 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

1. homemade. though i don’t mind stove top anytime other than thanksgiving.

2. whole turkey stuffed with my favorite stuffing recipe. green bean casserole. sweet potato casserole. rolls. butter. corn. mashed potatoes. gravy. pumpkin pie. pumpkin roll. apple pie.

3. i freeze pre-plated thanksgiving dinners when the big meal is over because i love it so much. other than that i like thanksgiving sadwiches using all the dishes from dinner.

4. pan-fry sliced turkey. melt swiss cheese on top. mix equal parts honey and dijon mustard separately. toast soft, crusty bread. spread honey mustard on bread. put turkey and cheese on that. soooooo good. so easy.

I wonder why we don’t fix turkey more often? It is a cheap meat.

Thanksgiving leftovers are the BEST. It’s too heavy for a summer night, but I should make turkey more often in the winter.

The Stove Top cornbread is the best. It has that yummy gritty texture.
