Dinner

Early this month, I mentioned that I was thinking about our Thanksgiving menu. We made our holiday-dinner-for-two tonight, and it came out really well! After I posted the above, I talked with T a little more about favorite holiday dishes, and he put in a request for stuffing. Since most stuffing recipes make a lot of food, I went looking for smaller-scale options, and I found a recipe promising chicken breasts and stuffing for two. We decided to try it out, but I still really wanted mashed potatoes and gravy, so it was a starch-fest. Fortunately, I enjoy a good starch-fest. For a vegetable, we made green beans with browned butter, sage, and hazelnuts.

The final plate.

And then dessert was leftovers from yesterday, pecan pie for T, pumpkin cheesecake for me.

Now we are happily stuffed and watching the recording of AOC's nwe Among Us livestream with special guest Jagmeet Singh, Canadian politician, all around a fine way to spend an evening.

yummmmmmm. honestly, Thanksgiving is for whatever makes you happy, foodwise.

I am honestly really happy with just StoveTop stuffing, and sometimes I make it just to go with random chicken that I made.
