What's for Dinner, Sat., Nov. 25, 2023

[NJCher]

Listening to all of you talking about your holiday turkeys made me hungry for poultry, so I stopped at Whole Foods and bought a young Step 2 chicken, which I will put in the slow cooker. I have all the vegetables to put in, like the carrots, garlic, onions, celery, etc. Plus all kinds of herbs from rosemary to thyme to marjoram.

Of course, this will not be done until late, so I'll be snacking on multi-grain tortilla chips and pineapple salsa, and having a kombucha or two.

1. I'm reheating some birria taco meat

that a Mexican friend gave us a few days ago. I'm going to make Burritos.

2. turkey/vegetable soup and dinner rolls, maybe a salad

The bone stock has been simmering for just about 24 hours now. It's a mix of turkey bones and a chicken carcass from the freezer, and a bunch of vegetable trimmings and seasonings. We've got onions, potatoes, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, and celery from this week's farm box, left over turkey, of course, and the pot liquor from Thursday's collard greens. If I can find any okra in the freezer that'll likely end up in the soup too.

3. Cooled off mixed-meats fahita,

from a not very good Mexican restaurant.

HOWEVER, did accomplish my intended purpose in going out: bought Birthday Card for my almost-ten year old grandson!!! AND bought Hanukkah cards for family (as well as pocket calendars for my daughters, a habit/tradition I've established,) so that's done!

Bought books for the kids, as Hanukkah gifts, weeks ago, so it's all over but the wrapping (and delivery!)

4. White Chicken (turkey) chili and a salad with lots of fresh veggies.
