Chocolate Ganache and Pecan pie

When I reviewed Againn I think I mentioned a chocolate pecan tart for dessert. I invited friends over for dinner and tried to make my own chocolate pecan tart. It was very chocolately.

1 pie shell, I used a graham cracker shell
12 ounces bittersweet chocolate
1 1/4 cup cream
chopped pecans

First I toasted the shell in a 350 degree oven
Place pecans in the bottom of the shell
Then I boiled the cream and poured it over pieces of the bittersweet chocolate
I stirred the mixture together and poured it over the pecan pieces
Chill in the fridge until the ganache is set.

Kelsey's Pub and Restaurant Thanksgiving

Kelsey's was one of the few places selling a Thanksgiving for 2 and it was only $75. It came with turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing with sausage, green bean casserole gravy, cranberry sauce, and rolls with a honey butter. I ordered an additional apple pie too. It was a perfect amount and I managed to get everything reheated ready to eat in 1 hour.
