Steps to make a Leftover Thanksgiving Gumbo!

1
Mince all vegetables, set aside. Remove fatty parts from ham and cut into 1 inch pieces. Heat butter in skillet and sear ham. Drain if ham releases a lot of fat and return to skillet. Add 2 cups of water and scrape sear from bottom of the pan. Reduce to lowest heat setting and allow to slowly simmer while you prepare the rest of the gumbo.
2
Have a few quarts of water set to side of stove (you will need it when roux is done). In a Dutch oven use medium setting to heat oil. Test for readiness by dropping a pinch of flour into pot, if it sizzles, it's ready. Add flour one cup at a time and whisk until all is incorporated. Lower heat to medium low (I set mine on 3 or 4) and CONSTANTLY stir with metal or wooden spatula until roux is the color of chocolate. This takes 20 to 30 minutes. I pull up a bar stool, have a seat and stir :)
3
When roux is ready add your vegetables and continue to stir for a few minutes more until roux is shiny and smooth. Add water that was set aside and stir.
4
Add leftover gravy and stir
5
Add ham and water it's been simmering in.
6
Add mashed sweet potatoes and stir.
7
Fill pot with water until about 3/4 full. Add all of your seasonings and slowly bring to boil stirring occasionally. Lower heat and simmer 30 minutes.
8
Add Turkey and cook another 10 minutes
9
Serve with leftover cornbread dressing

Tex-Mex Shepherd's Pie

Tex-Mex Shepherd's Pie

We had a craving for shepherd's pie, but also wanted to shake things up with it for some added pizzazz. This was the result. Although the recipe I'm sharing is including a few extra things that I will be doing next time, as I think they will improve it a little bit. We didn't do the thickening of the sauce, and only used 2 pkgs. of taco seasoning this go round, but still came out yummy, but gonna add a third pkg. to it next time and thicken the sauce a bit, as well as add more cheese and brown the top of the taters!!! 😆😆😆

Creamy Corn Toasts

#mysterybox2 Creamy Corn Toasts is a delicious breakfast dish which can even double up as an evening snack or even as a light dinner. Just as the name suggests, the overall taste is creamy and when teamed with whole wheat bread, it becomes healthy too! Sweet corn has a number of health benefits and it’s sweet taste imparts a wonderful flavour to the dishes in which it is used! In this recipe, I have ground 2/3 rd of the boiled corn to make it creamy and teamed it with some white sauce. The rest of the corn has been kept whole for the added crunch! The cheddar and pizza cheese just adds up to the overall taste and makes this dish quite filling too!

Chipotle & Roasted Corn Avocado Dip

Chipotle & Roasted Corn Avocado Dip

I call this avocado dip because loyalists to guacamole would go bananas if this was called such a thing. My Chipotle Avocado Dip is a spicy, smoky, chunky and slightly sweet dip that goes well with chips, tacos and other mexican fare. I used to make this weekly for months. Now I make it when I'm in the mood for a healthy-ish dip. It started as a basic guacamole recipe and somewhere along the way it turned into what it is now.

Fried Corn & Zucchini with Coriander and Thyme

Fried Corn & Zucchini with Coriander and Thyme

Inspired by today's garden harvest and batch of corn I received from a neighbor! The fresher the corn, the better! I added some beet greens that I had on hand, but you can change it up with something else or leave out the greens completely. Also, try different spices & herbs! This was really good on it's own, but also a nice topping for bread/sandwiches/salads/etc.
