I figured out that there are
459 calories per serving, if 14 servings are made. (Please note that the calorie

This is fabulous
turkey tetrazzini. It is rich and creamy and oozes goodness. Now, I have had a
lot of turkey tetrazzini but Ree adds a final step that makes this unique among
the other recipes. She sprinkles a whole cup of Panko bread crumbs on top prior
to cooking this dish. The final product is rich and creamy with a little crunch
that made me sooooo happy. This is a must for all of that leftover turkey that
you have in the fridge.
I ate this for lunch
and it was amazing. I had put some in the freezer and after I thawed it I was
thrilled with the flavor.
Christmas Movies – Special Entry
Here are some of
the movies I have enjoyed over the Thanksgiving Break.
Christmas Shepherd – a wonderful
touching story about a woman whose dog escapes during a storm and ends up with
a little girl whose Mom has passed away. Of course, it is a given that the two
adults will find each other and join because of the shepherd. Expected ending, but a cute story.
Let It Snow – I really liked this
one. It starred Candace Cameron-Bune and Alan Thicke. Candace’s character is
sent by her father (Thicke) to investigate a resort/lodge with the goal being
how to change it to a retreat for a desiginated age range. Her Mom had died
when she was young and Thicke retreated into himself, thus ignoring his
daughter for a lot of her life. She works for him to gain a bond, which
crumbles when she disagrees with her Dad. It ends happily, and I enjoyed
watching Candace enjoying the holiday season. It made me laugh and smile.
Christmas Under Wraps – Another Candace Cameron-Brue movie. This
time she is a doctor who expects a fellowship at a major Boston hospital. After
she is passed over, she takes one in Alaska. It is not what is expected and she
has two nurses, two orderlies and herself as the hospital staff. She is swamped but falls for the local
handyman who just so happens to be Santa’s son. I liked it.
A Dog Named Christmas – This one has been my favorite so far. Of
course it, is because it made me cry. This one is about a dog that is adopted
for the Christmas holiday only. The goal of the father is to teach his son to
keep an agreement. The boy does what is expected but there are many twists and
turns in this plot I ended up disgusted with the Dad. How can you return a dog
to the shelter when you have fallen in love? This is a keeper.
I have already watched it two times.
