Thanksgiving: Cooking Edition

 



Thanksgiving List: cooking edition. 
(Apologies to those starting the Nativity fast tomorrow,  we are on the Julian calendar so not fasting quite yet).  
I raided the freezer, got out 1 lb of beef and a package of chicken thighs and legs.  
Beef went with onion, oregano and fried up, then added a can of mushroom soup and then cooked egg noodles mixed in. 
 Chicken boiled with about 8 cups of water (it kept decreasing, I had to add more), then deboned and used a chicken enchilada soup mix + 12 oz of red salsa and now that's cooling on the stove. 
I mixed up some Marion Cunningham's Rescue Biscuits and had some of the 'easy beef stroganoff' with 1 biscuit and some spinach for dinner.  
I have food for all weekend + early next week! 
I am thinking of adding some more carrots to the soup, having them with tortillas and perhaps a bit more rice as well... 
Feels so good to get some cooking and baking in!

That does sound very satisfying! It's always great to get ahead in the meal planning.
