Roasted Duck

Joanne wanted to know if we could have duck for Christmas, so I roasted my first duck.

 

Roll-Out Christmas Cookies

We started a tradition several years back cut-out and decorate cookies at Christmas. Everyone helped with cutting out and decorating of the cookies - I do the rolling part. Some years the dough worked better than others.

I've been in search of a preferred recipe, and this year's was a success! I'm posting them for the future!

Instant Pot Whole Chicken

For a small Thanksgiving meal, I made an whole chicken in the Instant Pot.

I served it with stuffing, green beans, sweet potato, and cranberry sauce.

Chicken and Lentils in Peanut Sauce

I was looking for a different lentil recipe to make, and came up with Chicken and Lentils in Peanut Sauce.

Apple Pie Bar

I had some apples I wanted to use up -they were not crisp enough for me.  I found out that they taste quite more delicious when you add butter, sugar, and cinnamon to them!
