Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays to all my fellow DU'ers..what did you guys

[TK421]

have to eat for Christmas? Our family did something unusual this year and instead of the traditional turkey we had two prime ribs ( roasting out on those rotiserries ) crab-stuffed mushrooms, homemade crabcakes, white asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes, and grilled mushrooms ( with a white balsamic ) to top off the prime rib...and some "friendship bread" my sister made..which is kind of like a fruit cake, only it actually tastes fucking AWESOME.....oh, and biscuits....LOTS of biscuits....

How was everyone else's Christmas feast? What did you have to eat?

1. My dear TK421!

We also had a very nontraditional dinner...I made a terrific 9 bean soup, complete with ham hocks, stewed tomatoes, celery, lemon juice, and various spices! There was also a tossed green salad, and some sourdough French bread. For dessert, home-made pumpkin pie with either whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream...

Your dinner sounds really truly yummy!

:hug:

2. Hi Peggy!!! That does sound delicious...I'm a sucker for bean soup, especially

when the ham hock is cooked with it ( I'm only assuming it was? ) but yeah...our family rarely eats crab-stuffed mushrooms..my nephew recently got a job as a bouncer at a Center City Philly bar and apparently he got the recipe for these mushrooms from this place...he decided to make them on his own...they were a hit!!!

Here's to you and yours this day and a Happy New Year, My Love!!!! :D

3. Oh, yes, the ham hocks were cooked with the beans...

If you ever get out here, I'll make it for you, OK?

Happy New Year to you too, sweetie!:D
