New at Applebees

We shopped at Fresh Market yesterday.  It's on the expensive side, but the bakery can't be beat,  Afterwards we went to Applebees for a late lunch.  We did the 2 for $25 option.  They have select appetizers and entrees.  You get 1 appetizer and 2 entrees for $25.  They also have entree options for additional $$s.  


We opted for spinach dip which comes with a little salsa and tortilla chips.  It was very bland spinach dip,  Then we got the new burger O-M-cheese Burger.  It comes on a cast iron skillet, cut in half and face down in a pool of cheese.  At least it is supposed to.  We found the cheese on the skillet became overcooked and less like a pool and more like stuck to the skillet.  The burger did taste good, but it was advertised as having a spicy mustard and we couldn't taste it.  


Next my boyfriend got the new dirty soda,  He had the berry Mt. Dew with whipped cream and a cherry.  It is a dollar up charge for the dirty soda and it's a dollar up charge every time they refill it too.  I'm not sure it's really worth it.

Thanksgiving Leftovers

What did everyone do with their turkey leftovers? We roasted a turkey breast Friday night. We carved the meat off the bone and made turkey stock with the bones and some vegetables overnight. Saturday I made turkey pot pie and my husband made turkey noodle soup.

Trader Joes Orange Chicken

People are always asking what everyone likes to buy at Trader Joes. Last night we used the orange chicken in a new way. We cooked the chicken and sauce following the instructions on the bag but we used the chicken to top a salad. I bought romain lettuce, a red bell pepper, green onions, and Ken's asian sesame dressing. Then I sprinkled some sunflower seeds and red pepper flakes on top of my chicken. It was pretty similar to Pei Wei spicy chicken salad. I felt a little better about eating the batter covered chicken on top of a salad :) try it sometime.
