Wow, another holiday season is over. But, I have one more holiday gift to giveaway! See how you can enter to win a KitchenAid Pro HD 5 qt Stand Mixer at the end of this post! EDITED: GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
I hope you were surrounded by the ones you love most! Our holiday seemed to just go on and on and on, and I was sad to see it end, as out of town family loaded up their car and headed back to Kentucky yesterday.
It always seems like SO much prep, and then BAM! it’s all over way too fast!
Right before Christmas the good people at Sam’s Club challenged several bloggers to create a holiday meal with an assigned budget. My budget was $60, and I decided to use it for a pre New Years Eve dinner with just the four of us.
I had been cooking, and baking all week, so I decided to let Sam’s Club do the cooking for me! I wanted an easy, yet delicious meal we could all enjoy.
Sam’s Club made it simple. By shopping their Artisan Fresh section, I was able to put a great tasting meal on the table with little stress for me! – and we even have left overs!
Budget Friendly Holiday Meal
I couldn’t have come much closer to my budget! My total was $59.21.
Here’s what I picked up:

Chicken and Bacon Bruschetta ($9.98)
Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo ($10.88)
Spring Mix for salad ($4.47)
Herb & Garlic Focaccia ($2.78)
Artisan Fresh Cheesecake Sampler ($14.98)
Wine ($12.98)
$56.07 + $3.14 (tax) = $59.21
This was a nice treat and holiday meal that wouldn’t break your back or budget, leaving more time for family and guests! You could stretch your dollar even further if you wanted to cook your own meal. Sam’s Club has taken all the work out of that for you too, with their Simply Delicious Meals site, full of recipes, meal plans, wine pairing and even shopping lists!

My favorite dish for new year’s eve is surf and turf! I’m making spaghetti and meatballs for my kids to eat in the early evening, then after they’re in bed we’ll have a fancy late dinner of some surf and turf! Thanks!!
I’m a big fan of appetizers! Bruschetta, egg rolls, and yummy dips 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway! Happy Holidays!
Lasagna is always a favorite New Year’s Eve meal in our house.
Buffalo chicken dip!
My favorite dish to make for New Year’s Eve is Chicken picatta with lemon sauce and capers. Delish!
Taco Night, with a sparkling juice toast to ring in the New Year. 🙂
I joined TidyMom on Facebook 🙂
Chilli and garlic prawns as a starter followed by a BBQ!!
My go-to meal is really an appetizer that we’ve made into a whole meal. Shepard’s bread round stuffed with dried beef, sour cream, onion, green pepper, cream cheese, and Worcester sauce. Don’t really know its official name, but it’s yummy!

We like pizza and assorted appetizers on NYE.
According to my children, the only food acceptable on NYE is cutout cookies. We have a decorating marathon every year.

There is nothing as delicious as having a slow cooked roast, with rosemary baked potatoes and baby carrots , bring in the new year!
I’m from Louisiana and we have a tradition every new year’s eve. My mom would always make cabbage and black eyed peas. The cabbage is supposed to bring wealth and the peas are supposed to bring luck (I think). I have been thinking about traditions a lot lately. Now that my kids are older (5 and 7) I am starting our own. 🙂
My Favorite New Years dish is Menudo. A family tradition.

As a vegetarian, I love anything everyone can enjoy. Chunky apple muffins (recipe from Martha Stewart) are AMAZING. I like to make them in smaller muffin pans. The little ones love them that way!
