What? You don't like leftover ham? I have some in the freezer still, to cook beans with. And I haven't had so much of a taste of turkey this month. I did have a little Thanksgiving turkey at my son's, but I'm ready to cook the turkey in my freezer any old time now.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy! We broke tradition in a few ways.One me being in the ER in the morning. Then we had roast beef and ham.Well, they had roastbeef andham I was not hungry.

ReplyDeleteWE like Mexican food but then this is south Texas. lol
ReplyDeleteWe broke the tradition too. We had lasagna and pizza for Christmas Day. We even broke the condition for Christmas Eve and had Chinese snacks. And like you, I won't go back to turkey for Christmas again. We loved the change. Hope you have a great New year. Hugs
ReplyDeleteWe did not do tradition this year either....Oh how fun was that?!
ReplyDeleteI made my Lasagna and ll the family loved it....NO LEFTOVERS either...Great times...
We made a roast in the slow cooker. Saved us a lot of time and clean-up1
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great idea especially for a motor home. We don't have a lot of room for left overs.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it just feels good to do something different!!!!!
Love from down here.
I love corn beef and cabbage (and there's nothing like an Irish Christmas!).
ReplyDeleteI love ham and that is what we had, but that meal of yours sounds delicious. I guess it really doesn't matter what we have as long as we can share it with family.
ReplyDeleteHow brave to break with tradition and it sounds delicious. I noticed that a lot of my blog buddies had all Mexican dinners or other non-traditional ones. Maybe as a nation are getting out of the rut??
ReplyDeleteLeftovers are over rated.
Sounds absolutely delicious!! We are sick of our leftovers here too! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
