with 40 million travelers in the US air today, we all knew what to expect and showed patience.
Of course, there was a good system in place which helped a lot.
In the end, despite crowded roads and flight delays, all of my family made it home for Thanksgiving :)
Thanksgiving Risotto with Turkey
Here is a simple and delicious recipe that works perfectly with left over turkey!
Cook Scallions in butter for 30 seconds

Add Pearled Barley (rice)
and Tarragon (herb)
Add Chicken Stock and boil for 20 minutes

On a separate pan melt butter with olive oil
Add Turkey and Shiitakes Mushrooms
Brown until crisp...
Mix the browned Turkey to the Risotto

Serve and enjoy! :)
(Weeeelll, it's supposed to look like this)

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Yummy! We didn't order a turkey, so we won't be having a real Thanksgiving dinner :( but if I find some turkey breast cutlets in the market today, I just might make this recipe!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! I can imagine that your household feels nearly as chaotic as the airport today what with all your 'new arrivals' back on the scene. I love that kind of family commotion, and from your blog posts, your parents sound like wonderful people. Ciao & chow! ;)
p.s. You are the queen of using T-day leftovers well. Your gnocchi from leftover mashed potato idea is brilliant!
