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!

Our traditional NYE meal is grillades and grits, a New Orleans dish. It’s basically thin cuts of a cheap cut of beef like rump or round, that are breaded/fried and then cooked in a thick, beefy roux based gravy. Served over grits (or cheesy grits) with french bread and it’s heaven!!!

Love to make homemade chili and homemade cornbread.

I love to make finger foods for New Years. They are great for fgrazing all evening!
My favorite dish would be yellow rice and pork roast.
We keep New Years Eve simple at our house with yummy cheeses, crackers and fruit.
It’s tradition to have poppy seed sandwiches on new years eve. For the last few years I’ve made a new cookie/cupcake recipe for family on New Years Day.
I have not done anything special for New Year’s Eve in a long time. But I use to make a three course dinner When my husband and I first started dating 20 years ago.
Not to be funny, but Santa didn’t bring me a mixer, just a 14 cup food processer.
Liked both on Facebook.
Shared on Facebook as well!
I would love to win this puppy! Just don’t know where I’d put it–but I bet I could come up with a spot! Thanks, Sam’s!
We love pizza on New’s Years Eve– it goes well with all the football!
My fav New Years dish this year was a dip that is essentially the old standby, pickle wraps, only smashed together in a dip. 3 pkgs cream cheese, 1/2 jar of garlic dills finely chopped and 1 pkg of your fav deli ham finely chopped. Mix it all together with your fingers (meatloaf style) with a couple glug-glugs of milk to make softer and creamier. Serve with wheat thins! DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS!!
We traditionally have an Italian meal on New Year’s Eve. Yum!
In my family, New Year’s Eve was all about the appetizers- stuffed mushrooms, pizza dip, shrimp, etc. I made a Greek layered dip one year that was really great! New Year’s Day has been more a big fancier meal, and my sister used to cook it. Last time she made an au poivre steak with grass-fed beef she brought direct from Nebraska! Yum.
Great giveaway 🙂
my favourite recept is oliebolen .
Seafood Gumbo
Fried pork chops, mashed potatoes, sour kraut, white gravey, black eyed peas, corn and homemade ice cream and family!
