We tried out a new recipe tonight, and it did not disappoint! We used a Pampered Chef recipe for Moo Shu Pork Wrap. And, the others in the family enjoyed it, too! I added some Celery Sticks as a side with a little bowl of Peanut Butter.

Birthday Girl’s Choice
I had an amazing Steak Kabob Dinner with Asparagus and Seasoned Rice, and it was amazing! The flavors of the steak and rice went real well with the tender-crisp asparagus. I was very happy with Jennifer’s decision to order deliver instead of heading out into the Black Friday madness.
Thanksgiving Feast
For Thanksgiving dinner, I roasted the Turkey on my Half Sheet Pan and Baking Rack instead of a roaster pan. It seemed like it worked well because I could have the Sweet Potatoes roasting on the pan at the same time. We made a TRIPLE batch of Quick Cooker Mashed Potatoes, and they were just as good as a single batch! Gram made her Famous Pie Crust, and Mom tested out our Apple Slicer/Peeler to make the filling. She said she might even be brave enough to make it in her own with how easy it was. Sophie joined her to make the Green Bean Casserole, and Morgan made the Dressing. I made some Quick Cooker Smashed Brussels Sprouts and had a failed attempt at making gravy. Oh well, we can get everything perfect.
Special Spaghetti for company
Our Thanksgiving guests arrived safely and just in time for Jennifer and Sophie’s High Hopes Spaghetti. It was great as usual, and I added some sprinkles of Italian Seasoning on some freezer rolls to give them a little extra something. Our guests were well satisfied. I can’t wait until we share a feast tomorrow!
Celebrating National Nachos Day
Ever since this morning when I noticed it was National Nachos Day, I’ve been fighting back my cravings all day long. I even skipped lunch to save it all for tonight, and I was absolutely thankful I did! I made my take on Pampered Chef’s Grill Loaded Nachos recipe. The original was vegetarian, but I added ground beef seasoned with Southwest Seasoning Mix. It was incredible! I had a huge plate full and washed it down with an icy Yuengling Light. Now, I feel like a tick ready to burst. I’m sooooo satisfied!
Breakfast Casserole for Dinner
We had planned on making it for breakfast yesterday, but the Sandman kept us slumbering too long. So, Sophie helped Jennifer make her famous Breakfast Casserole for dinner tonight. It was good enough for a double helping.
Homemade Sweet Potato Soup
You can’t get fresher than this! Our Homemade Sweet Potato Soup is made with Fresh Sweet Potatoes, Onion, Garlic, Sage, a teaspoon of Salt and Vegetable Broth. Toss everything in our new Deluxe Cooking Blender, push a button and Soup pops out in about 15 minutes. It was sooooo yummy! We paired it with Grilled Cheese Sandwiches.
Roasted Chicken & Veggies
We tested out our new Half Sheet Pan & Baking Rack Set on our dinner tonight to see if it helped make it taste better. We roasted Bacon Wrapped Chicken Thighs over Maple Balsamic Brussels Sprouts, Carrots and Onions. The ruling was that it indeed helped make the bacon crispy on all sides.
Hidden Veggie Pasta
At my Pampered Chef meeting, we made Hidden Veggie Pasta Sauce in our Deluxe Cooking Blender. For our sweet treat, we made a Quick Cooker Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bundt Cake, which was amazing!
Mediterranean Braised Chicken
We had Mediterranean Braised Chicken complete was Artichoke Hearts, Olives, Tomatoes and seasoned Feta Cheese. We cooked it in our Rockcrok on the stove, in the microwave and under the broiler.
