I have felt quite inspired by my favorite chef Rick Bayless these days. With the arrival of my loved ones this holiday season I felt as though I had to make a menu that would make him proud! Since I had to work on Thanksgiving… I figured to seize the day and roast my first turkey! We stayed true to my obsession with Mexican food but stepped it up a notch. Our dinner consisted of this: Adobo Turkey with Red Chili Gravy, Spiced Sweet potatoes, my famous creamed corn and finally Apple Pie with Mexican Brown Sugar. I let the turkey sit almost an hour after taking it out of the oven to keep it moist and I was so glad I did- It was juicy and flavorful and EVERYONE went back for seconds! I may not do everything right in life but I sure can cook!
