Creamy Turkey Vegetable Soup

CREAMY TURKEY-VEGETABLE SOUP

.

This is a great, satisfying soup, perfect for a chilly night. This also makes the best of leftover turkey! Chicken can be substituted for the turkey for an equally delicious soup.

.

1 small onion, diced

2 tbsp. butter

2 cups water

2 chicken bouillon cubes

2 cups diced cooked turkey

1/2 cup chopped celery

1-1/2 cups diced potatoes

1 cup diced carrots

2-1/2 cups milk

2 tbsp. flour

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

.

1. Saute onion in butter until translucent. Add water, bouillon cubes, turkey and vegetables. Cover and boil gently until vegetables are tender.

2. Add a small amount of milk to the flour, stirring until mixture is smooth. Add remaining milk, salt and pepper.

3. Stir milk mixture into soup. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until soup thickens slightly. Remove from heat and serve. Yield: 4-6 servings.

Southern Buttermilk Biscuits

Ingredients

• 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the board ( if you can get White Lily flour, your biscuits will be even better)
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon baking powder ( use one without aluminum)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt or 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, very cold
• 1 cup buttermilk ( approx)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F.
2. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, or in the bowl of a food processor.
3. Cut the butter into chunks and cut into the flour until it resembles course meal.
4. If using a food processor, just pulse a few times until this consistency is achieved.
5. Add the buttermilk and mix JUST until combined.
6. If it appears on the dry side, add a bit more buttermilk. It should be very wet.
7. Turn the dough out onto a floured board.
8. Gently, gently PAT (do NOT roll with a rolling pin) the dough out until it's about 1/2" thick. Fold the dough about 5 times, gently press the dough down to a 1 inch thick.
9. Use a round cutter to cut into rounds.
10. You can gently knead the scraps together and make a few more, but they will not be anywhere near as good as the first ones.
11. Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet- if you like soft sides, put them touching each other.
12. If you like"crusty" sides, put them about 1 inch apart- these will not rise as high as the biscuits put close together.
13. Bake for about 10-12 minutes- the biscuits will be a beautiful light golden brown on top and bottom.
14. Do not overbake.
15. Note: The key to real biscuits is not in the ingredients, but in the handling of the dough.
16. The dough must be handled as little as possible or you will have tough biscuits.
17. I have found that a food processor produces superior biscuits, because the ingredients stay colder and there's less chance of overmixing.

Chinese Roast Pork Buns

List of Ingredients

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tbsp. hoisin sauce
1 tbsp. water
1 garlic clove, minced
1-1/2 lbs. pork chops (1/2 inch thick)
SAUCE
1 tbsp. cornstarch
1 tbsp. water
1 tbsp. peanut or vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped water chestnuts
1 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. hoisin sauce
3 tbsp. brown sugar
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 can (17.3 ounces) Pillsbury Grands refrigerated biscuits (not butter flavor) or can use homemade, I use this recipe, Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
GLAZE
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. water
1 egg white





Recipe

1. Heat oven to 375º. Line broiler pan with foil.

2. In blender or food processor, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, ketchup, 2 tbsp. soy sauce, 2 tbsp. hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp. water, and garlic; blend until smooth. Generously brush both sides of pork steaks, reserving remaining basting sauce. Place pork steaks on foil-lined broiler pan.

3. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove pork from oven. Brush both sides of steaks with remaining basting sauce. Bake an additional 10 to 20 minutes or until tender. Remove from oven; cool. Remove meat from bone; finely chop. Set aside.

4. In small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1 tbsp. water; blend well. Heat oil in wok or large skillet over high heat. Add onion and water chestnuts; cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes or until onion begins to brown. Add 1 tbsp. soy sauce, 1 tbsp. hoisin sauce and 3 tbsp. brown sugar; stir to coat. Add chicken broth. Stir in cornstarch mixture; cook and stir until mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat; stir in pork.

5. Separate dough into 8 biscuits. On lightly floured surface, press or roll each biscuit into 5-inch circles. Place about 1/3 cup pork mixture in center of each biscuit. Gathering up edges, twist and pinch to seal. Place, seam side down, on ungreased baking sheet. In small bowl, beat glaze ingredients until well blended; brush over buns.

6. Bake at 375º for 14 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 8 buns.

I hope you had a good holiday. My laptop has been acting up. It didn't want to run yesterday until late in the day. I do have some catching up to do though. I have received a Torani box from SheSpeaks and another Cravebox just in the past few days!! I will get to those within the next few days.

For today though, I am just doing my normal daily routines and helping my husband if he needs me. He is replacing the ceiling in our master bathroom.

We are doing take out for dinner.

Happy Thanksgiving

I just want to wish you all a blessed day. I hope everyone gets to enjoy the day with their families. Please find something to be thankful for today.

November Photo of the Day

I forgot to do this yesterday. The subject was "the last thing you bought". And the last thing I bought was yesterday, a Christmas gift for the husband. I bought it online so haven't received it yet but I have a picture of it. I don't think he reads my blog.  LOL

Today's subject is "happened this weekend". Unfortunately, nothing really happens around here over the weekends. Husband brought more wood in this morning for the wood stove so I took a picture of one of the stacks. The stack goes even further.

November Photo of the Day

OK, I'm going to try and catch up here. The 9th was "small".  I chose a small reminder of my favorite vacation to Cape Cod. We went over to Martha's Vineyard where I got this.

The 10th was can't (won't) live without and I do believe this picture is pretty self-explanatory!!!

Well, the next one is night so I will have to continue this later as it is still daytime. LOL
Until later folks!

Ok, I'm back. The 11th is night. Here is a picture out my back door after dark.

The 12th is drink. This is what I usually drink when not drinking coffee, lol

The 13th is where you slept. Here is where I sleep every night. (I know my pillowcases don't match the comforter, lol I've been too lazy to put the pillow shams on)

The 14th is "man-made". I had to think about this one. I decided to take a picture of something my husband built for me. This is my shelving for stockpiling in the basement.

And finally, I am on today!! Which is "in your bag". I actually don't have a lot of stuff in my bag.

And there we have it. I am caught up on my photo's. Whew! LOL

Broccoli Salad

Broccoli Salad


List of Ingredients

1 bunch broccoli (about four crowns)
3/4 c. raisins I like golden raisins
1/2 c. chopped red onion
1 tbs. sugar
2 tbs. vinegar (can use balsamic)
1 c. mayonnaise
10 bacon slices, cooked and crumbled
1 c. sunflower seeds (optional)


Recipe

Fry bacon slices and set aside. Cut broccoli into flowerets and tender stem pieces. Mix, sugar, vinegar, mayo . Add to broccoli, along with remaining ingredients. Refrigerate and serve chilled. I make the day before.

NOTE: these are my proportions, which I changed slightly from the recipe that was given to me. That one says 5 cups of broccoli, so I guess it would depend on the size of the bunch you have to start with. I use more raisins and onion than the original.

November Photo of the Day

I didn't get to posting yesterday's picture. The subject was something you do every day. My choice is kiss my husband & tell him I love him at least twice a day.

Yes, I used an old photo. I had wanted to take a picture of dear husband yesterday, but he had a meeting and didn't get home until late. So, this works for me! LOL

• 4 tablespoons flour
• 1 quart half and half
• 1/2 cup celery, finely diced
• 1 cup onion, finely diced
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 2 - 14 ounce cans of chicken broth if you enjoy thick soup, use one can
• 1 cup carrots, finely shredded
• 1 cup chicken breasts, cooked and diced (you can use a rotisserie chicken)
• 1 package gnocchi, cooked (you can find these in gourmet/pasta section of the grocery store - you may want to cut the gnocchi in half if it is large, or purchase the mini size if available)

• 1/2 teaspoon thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

Pancake Mix

HOMEMADE PANCAKE MIX

• 2 cups whole wheat flour

• 1 cup white flour

• 4 tablespoons sugar

• 4 teaspoons baking powder

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1 teaspoon salt

Combine the ingredients in a mixing bowl and transfer to a quart canning jar or other appropriate jar with a tight fitting lid.

You should also add a label to the jar telling the recipient how to make the pancakes. I made a label with pretty thorough instructions for making pancakes because I didn’t know if a younger or older family member might be getting the gift in our exchange. The main instructions you want to give are to make the pancakes using 3/4 cup of the mix with a 1/2 cup of milk and 1 egg. Here’s the instructions I put on my label.

To Make Pancake Batter Combine:
3/4 cup Pancake Mix
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Egg
(More or less milk can be used to make a thicker or thinner batter)
Pour the batter onto a hot griddle or fry pan using about 1/8 cup to 1/4 cup per pancake. When bubbles start to form on top, flip the pancake and brown on the other side. Makes approximately 6 to 8 pancakes.
For a larger batch that makes approximately 12 to 14 pancakes, combine 1-1/2 cups of the mix, 1 cup milk, and 2 eggs.

Mini Cheesecake

Mini Cheesecakes

Ingredients

• 12 Reduced Fat Vanilla Wafers
• 1 8oz package light cream cheese, at room temp
• 3/4 cup vanilla non-fat Greek yogurt (I used fat free sour cream)
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line muffin tins with 12 paper baking cups. Place a vanilla wafer in each one.
3. In a medium mixing bowl beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add egg substitute, yogurt, and sugar. Beat until smooth and thoroughly combined.
4. Fill each baking cup 2/3 full with cream cheese mixture.
5. Bake in oven for 20 minutes. You may have to adjust the time a bit if they still come out too soft or runny. It will depend on the oven.
6. Cool on a rack for about 15 minutes until mini cheesecakes reach room temperature, then chill in refrigerator for at least an hour.
7. Right before serving, top with fresh fruit of your choice.

Preparation time: 10 minute(s)

California Halibut Bake

California Halibut Bake

Halibut is a very light, flaky fish that is easy to cook, although not always available at a decent price. This particular recipe works well with cod, haddock, catfish as well as halibut.

* 4 (6 ounce) halibut fillets (Fillets should be free of any skin, regardless of the type of fish used)
(I used tilapia)
*1/2 cup Sour Cream
* 1/3 cup mayonnaise
* 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
* 1 tablespoon lemon pepper seasoning
* 1/8 tsp ground Chipotle Pepper (I use McCormicks)
* 3/4 cup bread crumbs

 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mix all ingredients, except bread crumbs, spread liberally over the halibut fillets in 9x13 dish.

Sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake 20-25 minutes (or until golden brown and fish flakes with a fork). The chipotle pepper doesn't make the fish spicy, but does really accentuate the flavors and should not be omitted!

November Photo of the Day

I ran across something in my email for a project called November Photo of the Day. I thought it was a neat idea, so I'm going to attempt it. I took two photos today, one for yesterday and today's.

Yesterday was to take a picture of something beginning with "c"

Today is a color, so I chose my favorite color

Check back tomorrow!
