“Christmas Week 2011”
Merry Christmas! I realize that you are just getting this meal plan on Christmas Eve, and if you’re cooking Christmas dinner you probably already have a plan. I decided to still give you a few recipes for Christmas dinner if you still need them, or just use the recipes as super delicious weekly meals and treats to keep the holiday spirit alive all week! I have a great tip this week for a roasted turkey in case you’re going to give the bird a second try after Christmas. I’ve actually been moving all week so I haven’t been able to enjoy all the wonderful Christmas festivities. Hopefully during this post-holiday week I can remake these Christmas treats in my new home!
What’s For Dinner
- Holiday Salad with Honey-Mustard and Herb Dressing
- Candied Pecan Brussels Sprouts with Garlic Butter
- Garlic and Herb Prime Rib Roast with Fennel and Horseradish-Hollandaise Sauce (That’s Right!)
- Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
- Making a Turkey instead? Try this recipe and my tip for cooking it upside-down! Garlic and Herb Roasted Turkey
Extras
- Candied Pecans and Holiday Chocolate Brittle
