What's For Dinner Sunday December 22 - Saturday December 28th 2024

We had no plans to do anything. As late as 11:00 on Christmas morning, I was still debating whether to have leftovers or find someplace to go out. It just wasn't feeling like a holiday. But I went freezer diving, and found 2 big beautiful duck breasts and then some parsnips in the fridge, so that became dinner. It seems I usually alternate between duck and beef Wellington for Christmas. So glad I changed my mind!

Duck with Port wine and dried cherry gastrique over pureed parsnips.

"They're supposed to have a bunch of goodies for us in the break room.
I'll try to avoid it."

I had two of Jules' soft gingerbread cookies, and an Italian wedding cookie.

I brought home a beautiful ham and cheese sandwich on a brioche bun to have for dinner with a salad.

Did not touch the cheese stuffed ravioli or the chicken and cheese dip. Lol

I would have been all over the chicken and cheese dip, only that.

Good girl! 😊
 
Tonight was supposed to be chicken Florentine but she got pork sirloin roast out by mistake. It was excellent. The potatoes were a Finnish recipe and quite good.
