Happy winter solstice, everyone!Tonight I make a fancy meal for my family as a Christmas gift, and I thought I'd share the menu with you all.
Spiral Pork Loin stuffed with a filling made of mild Italian sausage, onions, maple smoked pecans (thanks to Jodi!), cranberries, and mozzarella cheese, and wrapped in a bacon lattice (Dave and Chris will be all over this!)
Caramelized Onion & Brie Bread Pudding
Brussels sprouts sauteed with pancetta and pine nuts
Yellow beans from my garden
Pumpkin Gingergread Trifle
You can see last year's Solstice meal here.
FYI, I haven't been feeling well lately and things are once again backing up in my Google Reader. I am sorry I haven't been around visiting & commenting as usual, but I really do need to take a step back at this time and take care of myself a bit. I will be posting about this meal for sure, though!
