Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays.  I love having family over for a large dinner (or a small one, or for any reason at all).  And by large, I mean that I take the Wednesday before Thanksgiving off so I can cook.  This year, this is what I made:

• Goat cheese and Olives stuffed Chicken Breast
• Lasagna Rollups (stuffed with Portobello mushrooms, spinach and ricotta)
• Mashed potatoes (with cream cheese and sour cream)
• Ratatoulle 
• Stuffing (ok, this one was out of the box, StoveTop)
• Turkey (well, Duh!)
• Crab salad (Grandma brought this over)
• Salad (our version: tomatoes and onions only with salt)
• Cookies (I am not much of a baker, so I gave this a try, and these particular “cookies” turned out ok.  Easy to make dough and filled with strawberry and apricot preserves)

Sounds like I had the entire population of a small country over for dinner, but it was only 5 people.  No, we didn’t eat everything.  LOTS of leftovers.
