New freezer and chickens
So, we went out and bought a new, bigger freezer yesterday to hold all of our chickens for the up-coming year. My boyfriends family raises meat birds, and we had the annual family chicken processing day this past weekend. In celebration of this, I roasted a chicken with fresh herbs from the garden (rosemary and thyme) salt, pepper, then rubbed them into the skin with olive oil, sliced garlic cloves placed under the skin, and stuffed with Bell's stuffing. Home made from scratch stuffing is so over-rated - I love Bell's! Plus, Bell's was created in Boston - how perfect is that?! For sides we had Yukon Gold Mashed potatoes, biscuits, and cranberry jelly (yes, from a can... perfect for sandwiches later in the week).

Girl, you haven't had MY homemade stuffing- it's the homemade bread that does it. But I haven't had this Bell's thing either. I'll be lookin' for it.
ReplyDeleteLol :) You can buy just the Bell's seasoning mix (tiny little yellow box with a turkey on it) in the spice aisle of most grocery stores... Maybe I will try that with home made bread next time instead of the whole box mix, or store bought bread. The problem is home made bread doesn't last that long around here!
