PASSIONATE RATIONS

We spent the evening trying to find a suitable substitute for turkey-as-entree.   We came up with several:  pumpkin filled with savory stew; savory tarts/pies; stuffed squash.

Unfortunately, our T-Day will consist of driving over two hours one way, so we really need something we can make ahead and that won’t require lots of cooking or reheating once we get there, since all of the cooking appliances where we are going likely will be taken.

So, we have a dilemma.

Yes, we do have a crock pot, but soup or stew alone (without some non-liquid component, like a squash bowl) just doesn’t seem entree enough for me.

I suppose I could just plan to pile my plate with layer-on-layer of side dishes….

The quest continues…to the detriment of this post’s substance, for which I apologize.

Please feel free to comment with ideas.
