Pickled Peppers

Katie,

George wants to know if you will share Nonni's Pickled Peppers recipe? He even claims HE will try to make them!

Flank Steak with Creole Hash Brown Stuffing

I have been wanting to try this for quite awhile and finally got around to it yesterday. It was yummy, but spicy and I didn't even put the full amount of creole seasoning. I am looking forward to trying the pizza stuffing next:)

Thanksgiving

Now that Halloween is over, I am ready to turn my attention to my Thanksgiving menu. I am hosting my husband's family here. One thing I need to be conscious of this year is that I only have an oven, stove and microwave to cook in - no convection oven as in the past. That means I need to be conscious of how much I need to get into the oven after the bird comes out to rest.

I am thinking I might do a pumpkin soup first course and will probably do the make-ahead mashed potatoes. I think the Moriarty stuffing is a must (the only recipe I know of that was passed down through my father-in-law, and the only food I ever saw him help prepare), and it is quite good. Aside from that, I haven't decided.

What are you making this year?
