In order to honor President's Day you will want to include foods that are delicious as well as being easy to prepare. After all, you don't want to spend the whole day stuck in the kitchen! Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Chicken casserole, pizza, sausage quiche, beef stroganoff, baked stew, and even cabbage soup as part of the main dishes depending on the number of guests. Side dishes may include broccoli casserole, rice casserole, sweet potato soufflé, or even sweet potato pudding.
For sweet potato pudding you will need 2 cups raw sweet potatoes grated, 1 cup of milk, 1 cup sugar, 2 eggs beaten slightly, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Grate the potatoes into the milk and then add the other ingredients. Pour into a greased casserole dish. You will need to bake it at 350 degrees for an hour.
For stew you may wish to combine two cans of beef broth, beef, carrots, bacon, potatoes and onion. You will also need cornstarch or flour to thicken the beef broth. To have the flavors combine and create soft meat you will want to cook the stew on a simmer for at least an hour. You may even elect to add a little cheese to top of the stew. Good side accompaniments include dinner rolls and a tossed salad.
President’s Day is very important to most of us as it honors those who have helped run our country, and helped to establish a system of democracy. Whether you use the above tips or some of your own ideas, you and your family and friends will well and truly be well-fed on Presidents’ Day.
