Weekday Wrap Up 4

Leave a comment

I apologize for no Weekday Wrap Up post for last week. It was a busy week with my DD returning from her trip to Italy and the rest of the week spent at the trailer. So I assumed that no one wanted to see the pictures of burgers and dogs or our trip to KFC cause the weather was so soppy!

On the holiday weekend, the smoker was hard at work. This time, it was a pork shoulder, a side of salmon and a whole chicken.

Tip: Utilize the freezer and pack individual portions of leftover smoked meat and salmon for Back-to-School lunches. Pics included.

Here are the latest pictures from the 5 o’clock rush kitchen for this week’s Weekday Wrap Up.

This weekend our trailer park is hosting its annual ‘Pasta Dinner’. All the ‘Italians’ in the park make a homemade pasta and sausage for dinner with all the fixings. YUM!

No cooking for me on Saturday 😉

Enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend.

I’m still struggling and eating my cold dinners as I try to get decent pictures using my DSLR. Any tips or pointers on getting better food pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Homemade Turkey Broth Soup

Homemade Turkey Broth Soup

My mom sent me home from the holidays with a new Paderno pot and her homemade turkey broth.

I put both to good use for dinner tonight.

While the “peperini” pasta was cooking I sautéed some leeks and carrots then added some chopped leftover Christmas turkey.

Once the turkey broth was heated thru added fresh parsley and dill.

Always topped with grated fresh Parmigiano Reggiano cheese.

Delicious on a chilly night.
