- NOTES :Since we are going out for Thanksgiving dinner I have been doing some cooking which will capture some of my favorite flavors which I might miss at the restaurant. Here are some good recipes.
- The sweet potatoes were delicious-originally posted to the TNT holiday swap by Kathi Sandler. I scaled the recipe down to 3 servings and it scaled wonderfully. Along with which we had the Maple-Mustard Pork Roast posted to Eat-L by Claudia Knowles. I used pork tenderloin to cut down on the fat. I think I might marinate this in the sauce next time to get more of the delicious flavor. We also had creamed onions. What a fabulous meal of favorites.
