We had chicken salad sandwiches on fresh kaiser rolls... SO good. Tomorrow night, I'm planning to make gyro burgers on homemade Greek flatbread. I guess I'm kind of on a, ahem, sandwich roll lately! LOL! Sorry... couldn't resist...

Is the Dutch meatball different from the usual recipe we use (like Swedish meatballs are spiced differently)?

It is made using finely diced beef top sirloin steak! And it has nutmeg in it. Not my normal type of meatball ;) But four nights a week we are eating a Christmas dinner from a different country... And this is what is on the menu :)

Interesting..Does it have a sauce or gravy; or, does it stand alone?
Sorry...I'm so curious.

Okay so I made the meatballs tonight.... It was almost liked beef stroganoff inside a crunchy meatball. You had the diced cooked meat, in a kinda gravy, mixed with breadcrumbs, then coated in an egg wash and more bread crumbs, that is then deep fried. They recommend serving it with mustard if desired. Oh... Lt me explain the gravy and how it does not make a mess... So about four hours before you turn it into meatballs,you melt butter,and flour to make a roux,then add beef broth. To that you add the finely diced eat and cook until browned. Then you refrigerate it for the next four hours! So all the gravy stuff gets hard/sticky. Then you mix in bread crumbs, coat with egg wash, then more bread crumbs and fry.

Wow Shannon, sounds like you need a week to prepare it. How do you get everything done with your new wee one. You sound like super-mom.

I will post a picture soon hopefully. i am also hopefully updating my blog with all our country studies. Tonight is a Belgium Christmas... braised pork loin, potato croquettes, and Flemish Style Brussels Sprouts
As much as i enjoy trying the new recipes, and teaching the kids the various cultural traditions, it gets a little exhausting!

Shannon,
That is a lot of work, but I'm sure the kids appreciate it and they will have wonderful memories of trying new foods from other countries, and how the holiday is celebrated in different cultures. Back in the stone age when I was a kid, we had christmas parties at school and learned about the different celebrations, I remember it fondly.

Well Thursday was: Organic roasted turkey with fresh herbs I grew from seed, mashed potatoes, carrot souffle, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, rolls, brie on french bread with smoked salmon and fresh eggnog from a local farm for appetizers, and homemade pumpkin pie with MJ's crust. Waddle waddle...
Yesterday: LEFTOVERS!
Today: Grilled chicken with stuffed acorn squash

I'm going to make turkey tetrazzini from left overs, and a salad, I'm hoping my sister can come over to share.

We're having turkey leftovers here - thinking of turkey noodle casserole, but we'll see what husband is interested in when he gets home from work tonight. I don't really have a taste for anything specific, so he can be the deciding vote.

Changed our minds - husband was pretty turkey'd out. So I made kielbasa with potatoes and sauerkraut, seasoned with caraway.

Sounds good, Sara! I made a pork roast the other night with garlic and fresh rosemary. On the side I made stuffed acorn squash (Beach farmgirl's recipe). Yesterday was steak with roasted sweet potato fries and broccoli, garnished with a light Danish sauce. Tonight I am thinkin' either chili or chicken and dumplings. Hmmmm....decisions, decisions...
