Thanksgiving

I didn't make it home for Thanksgiving this year, but I still had a great celebration with some close friends. Iris, Kevin, Adan, and I made our own dinner. I brought two strawberry rhubarb pies, homemade rolls, green bean casserole, and pumpkin cider. Sadly, I didn't get a picture of the pumpkin cider and all of its deliciousness.




Pumpkin Cider Recipe
~2:1 Ratio of Apple Cider to Pumpkin Puree (I originally did 1:1 like the recipe told me, but it was way too thick. I played around with it until I got the consistency I liked)
Nutmeg and Pumpkin Pie Spice to taste
Cinnamon Sticks
Whipped Cream

In a large saucepan, mix together the pumpkin puree and apple cider on medium-low heat. Once the puree and cider have mixed together nicely, add in nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, and a cinnamon stick. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for approximately 20 minutes. Serve hot and garnished with whipped cream and a cinnamon stick.

Recipes?

Anyone have some fast recipes for dinner that they care to share with me? I realize that when I moved out here that I mainly know how to cook things that take too long to cook AKA over 30 minutes. If anyone cares to share their fast recipes, I'd greatly appreciate it! I'll also share mine if you like... :D
