Our Christmas Feast
 

We had a very quiet christmas, just me and John and the cats... so I
cooked us a simple but delicious Christmas dinner, and it looked so
good on the table that I was inspired to grab the camera and take some
photos -

I made a roasted turkey breast, a casserole dish of dressing with
craisins and chopped apple in it, a sweet potato casserole topped with
pecan nuts, marshmallows (DH insisted), and coconut, and some
steam-in-the-bag mixed vegetables. I was going to do smashed potatoes
as well but I decided we really didn't need them.

John carved the turkey...

This is my plate of goodness... I didn't have the makings for gravy
(the turkey didn't have any fat ON it! and I like to cook my poultry
in a water-bath for moistness), so I use the pan juice to moisten my
plate.

The girls cadged some of my turkey that I couldn't finish...

We nibbled on our 'dessert' at suppertime because we were too stuffed
to want to eat anything else before then - a sour cream apple pie
topped with a pecan/coconut crumble topping (blonde because we didn't
have any brown sugar), and a plate of rumballs.

And here's our fridge bursting with leftovers next day... anyone want
to come pay a visit and help us eat them? :P

Excellent series, thanks!

Had me drooling and running out to the kitchen for more turkey
rice...... ;-d

(Hey, it's what I had on hand hot!)

Why does everything look burned and dried out?

LOL from the looks of it, he's not carving the turkey (which looks
positively disgusting BTW), he's digging into his plate! Oink!

I'm glad that somebody was entertained... (she's been in my KF for
months so I don't know what she said, but I'm sure it was up to her
usual high intellectual standard.)

Nice pix, Karen! I think you're going to be eating leftovers for the next
week, though. :~)

I'm sure we are! I'm also sure that we'll fail in the attempt - DH
hates leftovers! He had a burger last night rather than a plate of
reheated Christmas dinner! (I think I definitely got the better end of
the bargain there...) Tonight he doesn't get a choice - I'll cook some
chicken and he can have those side dishes or go hungry :P
