  1. Easter will be simple, mainly because there are only two
    of us and I do not want a refrigerator full of leftovers
    like after Thanksgiving last year. We are having roast
    turkey (brined) and whipped potatoes. Of course I will
    make gravy as well.

    The recipe for the whipped potatoes is here:?q=whipped+potatoes+group:rec.food.cooking&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-

    I normally despise mashed potatoes, but these are awesome. I
    think this time I might leave the peels on, because I like a
    slightly rough texture and I like the peel taste.

    I like meat. I would rather gorge myself on turkey than
    turkey and sides.

    Easter i real simple this year. With 92+ temperatures, 90% +
    humidity, and no air conditioning I don't plan on doing any
    cooking. I do have one of the rare hams that the supermarket
    occasionally gets in for the gringos in town, but it's
    staying frozen for the time being.

    We may drive up to the lake for a fish dinner or if we chose
    not to do that, lots of foods that require little or no
    cooking - tropical fruit salad, shrimp cocktail, etc.

    I do not see what this has to do with Easter dinner, but
    then again, I am not familiar with how you celebrate it. For
    all I know you eat your cats' [censored]. I mean, they are
    cats, it is not like they hide it. Tail up, Sheldon down!

    We are having roast turkey, mashed potatoes, carrots,
    stuffing, and whatever other vegetable I can find in the
    refrigerator. Maybe red cabbage.

    The turkey won't be brined and the mashed potatoes will be
    made with potatoes, basil, salt, pepper and olive oil, and
    maybe a little rice
    milk.

    since my in-laws are out of town, i'm making steaks for my
    husband and I. they are marinating in a bacon fat/maple
    syrup/orange juice mixture deep-fried sweet potato slices,
    potato salad (my husband's grandmother's recipe), and
    steamed asparagus are what im planning as sides (i know; two
    kinds of potatoes. but i promised my husband :>😉 banana
    bread for dessert, if i get around to making some :>
