A good Thanksgiving!

How was everybody's Thanksgiving? I hope we all had families and good food surrounding us. As far as mine, everything went pretty well. I ate so much that I my body was fed for 3 days!

The last 2 years I haven't brought anything to contribute to the table so I thought I'd whip something up this year. I thought long and hard on what to bring but nothing would come to mind! I wanted to make some type of Korean dish but then I thought, "What for? No one's going to look forward to Korean food. It's all about the turkey, stuffing, and yams this holiday." 

So, I went the "American" way and made some wings with a pasta salad on the side.


The chicken was pretty easy to make. I just bought some wings, added the seasoning, and threw them in the oven for 25 minutes at 450 degrees. I also added some sugar, onion powder, and chopped serrano peppers to give the seasoning a little more kick.

Next is my pasta salad. Once the chicken was done I tasted one and wasn't really impressed. Feeling insecure I decided to make another dish just in case people started to think I sucked at cooking.... *haha* I swear, I just found some ingredients around my house out of panic and made this on a whim. It turned out sooo good and tasty!!

For this recipe I got-
*1 box of pasta
*1 cup of broccoli
*1/4 cup melted butter
*1 cup spinach
*1 tsp pepper
*1 dash of sea salt
*a handful of chopped pepperoni
*3 large pickle spears chopped up

Cook the pasta according to the directions. Once it's done cooking add all the ingredients together. That's it, folks! You got yourself some great and easy pasta salad!!



There was so much food I didn't know where to begin!!!
