The Fresh Letter Menu for Dec 23, 2022

Recipes to fill in the gaps.

Hi there,

Welcome to the last Fresh Letter Menu of 2022. It’s been an eventful one for sure—it was such a joy to share my big news with you this past Monday! I’ll be mostly offline focusing on family time for the next week, but am looking forward to gracing your inboxes again in the New Year. We’ll do our Q&A not this Sunday, but the next!

I know many of you are likely focused on your holiday prep and will be for the next few days, so today’s menu will serve as a stop gap to get you fed in between and and in the days following the big feasts to come. We’ve got a few quick and easy recipes, a recipe that works as an app for your parties or a side just for you, and a couple recipes for your leftovers! Let’s take a peek:

Leftover Ham Sandwiches If you haven’t experienced the revelation that is a ham sandwich on a Hawaiian roll, I’m begging you to rectify that situation for yourself immediately. This year, my mom is serving lobster rolls at Christmas dinner (fun!), but in the past, we’ve often had a spiraled honeyed ham at our holiday meal. The evening meal is always special, but the leftover sandwiches we make in the days following that meal are absolutely sublime.
