Since yesterday I shared an article for a Christmas dinner for two I thought it would be good to share a recipe for that special dinner. This would be perfect with Rice Pilaf and steamed veggies. This would also make a wonderful date night meal when you have a chance to have just you and your special someone home.

What You Need:

• 1/3 C long grain rice, uncooked
• 4 T butter, divided
• 1/2 C cream of celery soup
• 3/4 C water
• 1 T lemon juice
• 1 t chives, dried

This would make a yummy ham dinner if your having a small dinner or having more then one meat dish for dinner.

What You Need:

• 1/4 C ketchup
• 1 T brown sugar
• 1 T cider vinegar
• 2 t Worcestershire sauce
• 1 t + 2 T canola oil
• 1/4 t pepper
• 4 (4 oz ea) ham slices, boneless and fully cooked
• 1 (8.5 oz) can sliced peaches, drained

With the holiday parties coming up, turkey is still a common food that is served, often times still lots of leftovers are brought home and the ideas run out usually right after Thanksgiving after that bird has been cooked. Here is a quick easy quiche that you can make from Turkey leftovers. It’s great for those office parties and after Holiday get together.

• 2 1/2 -3 cups leftover stuffing or half of a 6 oz package bread stuffing mix, prepared according to package directions
