STUFFED BEEF ROLLS

A festive and elegant way to serve steak on a dinner table.
This is our holiday dinner! I made a test run about a month ago and just served the stuffed beef rolls with some oven roasted potato wedgies, but this evening I'm serving them with a side of creamy mashed potatoes, spinach cooked the old fashion way- finely chopped sauteed with butter and heavy cream, and a nice cauliflower salad topped with crunchy butter toasted breadcrumbs. YUM!
I decided to stuff the steaks with mushrooms, carrots, and sauteed chopped onions, bell peppers, and celery; but you can surly add some spinach, or any other colorful veggie, green or black olives, even hard boiled eggs would be a nice, tasty, eye appealing addition! (Pictures included are from the test run.)

CANDIED ORANGE PEEL

It’s orange season! In our family we all love oranges; they are not just good for you, they are sweet and sour, juicy and delicious! But what about the orange peel? Throw it in the garbage? Not in our house. Orange peel can be a base for a delicious orange preserve or candied orange peel that you can nibble on or put in cookies, cakes, even as decoration in a tea cup or cocktail glass. Or you can give them away as a gift of appreciation to someone dear to you, a neighbor, or a teacher.

The possibilities are endless!
