Great things to look forward to....
Like your empanadas...
Have you decided?
This is where we are, but it is early:
Foie Gras on toast points with a sauce
Lobster steamed with clarified butter
The best steak on my Weber
Desert.
Each course with its own wine.
Sumthing bubbly at witching hour.
Oh...my bad... My sincere apologies to you and your Nacatamale lady...I bet she also makes a mean empanada, though....Nacatamales.

Let's make this the Best Christmas Ever!
Hoppin' John is traditional, plus collards...Mexican cornbread, though? Jalapenos and cheese?That is tradition at my house.
Not that I believe they give me good luck- But because I am afraid of all the bad luck I might have if I didn't consume them on New Years Day!
And besides- they are so damn GOOD! Don't forget the Mexican Cornbread!

Thanks...Enjoy... everything sounds delicious...I always make what I call Festive Black-Eyed peas for NYE where I flavor them up ham hocks, with all 4 colors of some Bell Pepper, lots of Garlic, and loads of Celery.
And yes, I like to use various cheeses and sliced Red Jalapenos into the cornbread mix.
I favor the texture of Fresh Mustard Greens over Collard greens- and thanks for reminding me of how well that goes with Black-Eyed peas!
Also some Candied Yams can't hurt anything either! I use honey, cinnamon, butter, and nutmeg for a real treat!
And for desert- Pineapple upside down cake!
Thanks...Enjoy... everything sounds delicious...
(Throw in a couple of smoked turkey pieces sometime with the peas....)
Save the wings for the beans or greens....or stock...I've always wondered if those smoked turkey tails or turkey wings would be good in something like Turkey and dumplings or a turkey pot pie!
Save the wings for the beans or greens....or stock...
(But any leftover smoked turkey (including the tail) would be great in dumplings or pot pie...or tetrazzini...or pizza...lol...)
Smoke your own, though.....the packaged ones are suspect...lol
