Phil's turkey recipes

The classes this week centered around knife skills and turkey. Phil Barkman, from the meat department at Walnut Creek Cheese showed us how to use our knives, store them and sharpen them. He also taught us how to carve a turkey and provided some recipes for left-over turkey. It was a great week and we hope to have Phil join us again in August.

Thanks for visiting my blog and have fun in your kitchen!

Make ahead meals

We didn't get to have a class last Tuesday so we worked twice as hard on Friday on some make-ahead recipes.

Linda cut the recipe for 3 meat sauce in half and cooked it for 30 minutes in the pressure cooker and it was absolutely delicious.

Lydia and Becky whipped up the yummy peanut butter dessert and Nathaniel and Kim made ham and cheese sandwiches with a poppy seed spread. Nathaniel also made baked oatmeal. Yum!

Thanks for your hard work!

This dish is quick and easy in the pressure cooker but was traditionally baked in the oven. Spoon some extra gravy from the bottom of the pot over your meatballs and enjoy!

Pressure Cooker BBQ Beef

Keep the heat as low as possible while still maintaining pressure. The BBQ sauce burns easily so you may want to add just a bit more water.
