It OK FW, I had ham for you.  My holiday went south and no big cook up happened but did end up eating some nice baked ham at a friend's house, I do love ham.

Question?  When you didn't get to do thanksgiving and are home alone what do eat the day after thansgiving?  Can of corned beef hash, topped with some sautéed baby portabella mushrooms, pace I can't sauce, and toast with lots of raspberry jam.  This meal was approved by no one but it was what was available.  At least the jam, mushrooms and salsa were pretry good.  Shoot, can't believe I forgot the pic.

Little late Thanksgiving meal. Sorry some of the photos are not good, but the meal was very good. We made a sausage, tarragon, thyme and oyster cornbread stuffing. My Betterhalf made the corn bread on Weds. Browned mild Italian sausage in browned butter. Cooked in chopped onions, celery, fresh thyme, salt and pepper.

 

Cubed about 2/3 of a 13 X 9 inch pan of corn bread that was dried at 325 deg for about 20 minutes. Added 3/4 cup of chicken stock to the sausage mixture. In a separate bowl beat two eggs with chopped fresh tarragon, and 3/4 cup of chicken stock. Slowly mixed the gg mixture into the sausage mixture, then added to the corn bread in a casserole dish. Also chopped up some oysters and mixed those into the corn bread along with the liquor from the oysters. Baked at 350 for 40 minutes.

The turkey was a half of Livie's first turkey that she shot back in 2017 (was well wrapped prior to freezing.). I mixed warm butter with minced garlic and chopped fresh sage leaves and put that under the skin of the turkey. Rubbed more butter over the skin and coated the turkey with a mixture of smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Set the turkey in a roasting pan with onion, carrots, celery, and a cup of chicken stock. Cooked at 350 deg. Basted with red wine, butter and the remaining rub spice mixture.

My Betterhalf made the traditional green bean casserole. She also made a killer sweet potato casserole with pecan topping. No steps since I did not make that one.

Livie made a couple of different cookie recipes. Got pictures of her chocolate and pecan pinwheels.

That looks almost exactly like my plate! I didn’t eat ham that night, but I brought some home. Had some for breakfast this morning.

The first installment of Thanksgiving leftovers ! This morning was a southwest turkey hash. Started with my new favorite way to prepare breakfast potatoes. I begin the cooking in the microwave until they start to get soft and then slice them.

The potatoes went into a skillet with some oil and bacon fat to brown. Cut red onion and green peppers as well as some of the turkey breast.

Those went into the skillet followed by a large clove of garlic that was minced. Cooked until the peppers softened. Added garlic powder, cumin, and a Kickin' chicken spice blend. Served with an over easy egg and hot sauce.

When the wife and I left Tulsa, all the leftovers stayed with them.

Tonight we prepared cannelloni and a nice salad. Watching football, we enjoyed the evening.

Well, Thanksgiving 2.0 is in the books and I’m whipped. Here’s the highlights...

Tiramisu done.

Stuffing in the works—dried Jiffy cornbread, butter, onion, celery, sage, thyme and chicken stock. 

I love this stuff.

Finishing up the mashed potatoes and they were a little soupy. So, I grabbed the mashed potato flakes to thicken them up a little just as baby bro walks in the door. He says, ‘Oh, instant potatoes.’ So I snuck up behind him, pulled his pocket open and dumped in some of said instant potatoes. My punk-a$$ brother then dumps them on the floor. 

Oh well, at least the little punk brought the turkey. Here’s the spread

And the plate

Delicious!
