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!

I love garlic/herb cream cheese stuffed mushrooms wrapped with bacon and grilled to perfection! This is something my friends in Finland made when I visited in the summer of 2010…I haven’t made them since February…probably because I would just eat them all. (check out the recipe here: http://aitonainen.blogspot.com/2011/04/finnish-friday.html) But, these would be PERFECT for New Year’s Eve.
The kiddos (3yo & 4yo) want pizza, salad, and milkshakes so that will be our NYE dinner (no complaints from the Hubby or myself, yum!). Maybe we’ll grill up the mushrooms after the kiddos are in bed 🙂
Champagne… oh? That is not a “dish”? Okay then… probably my favorite would be anything with chips.
I don’t really have a favorite thing to eat on New Year’s. We just kind of hang out and munch on what ever is left over from Christmas. Although, growing up, we would have a German dish on New Year’s Day and I remember always looking forward to that.
Anything, as long as there are homemade rolls to accommodate it. 🙂
My favorite thing to eat on new years is a crab ball with crackers.

Since we like to spend time with family and friends on New Year’s and not tied up in the kitchen…we go for something you can throw into the crock pot and cook all day! An inexpensive chuck roast is usually our choice bc you can toss in some potatoes, onions and carrots and call it a meal! Would LOVE to win one of these mixers!!!!

I don’t really have a favorite New Years dish. This year we’re going to do all appetizers. The kids are looking forward to that!
I love Sam’s chicken and bacon bruschetta!! My mother in law made them on Christmas Eve and they were delicious! For New Years we do appetizers, a nice meal, and stay home to avoid the crowds (and drunk drivers).
Favorite NYE dinner is steak and mash potato’s with a bottle of David Caffaro red wine.
My favorite dish would be Hot Artichoke Spinach Dip, and Chocolate chip Cheesecake home made.
my favorite new year’s eve dish is fondue and wine! 🙂
