Happy Sunday! We have reached the third weekend of November and for those who are from the United States are celebrating Thanksgiving in another few days. Thanksgiving Day is a holiday celebrated primarily in the United States on the fourth Thursday of November. Thanksgiving had roots in religious and cultural tradition.
I am glad to be part of the Sunday Supper team that have explored me to many of their celebrations in the United States. Honestly, I have no idea what is "Thanksgiving" before this. What I know all families will cook a feast for this celebration.
This Sunday, our Sunday Supper team was given a theme - Thanksgiving Leftovers Recipes. I am sure every house will have loads of leftover food from the celebration and how are you going to manage them? Lets find out from how the Sunday Supper team has to suggest. This Sunday is hosted by Nicole Cook from Daily Dish Recipes. I named her as "superwoman" as she always very good in multi-tasking responsibilities as a writer, blogger, mother and also as a "Triberr Consultant" to Sunday Supper Team.....LOL!
I have done some online research for Leftovers recipes and I falls to this recipe called Moroccan Chicken Salad. I love this salad that goes with cooked rice. I am sure this recipe favor to Asian taste too. If you have leftovers of roasted chicken, it will be perfect! The flavored shredded chicken meat goes well with the spices (ground cinnamon and cayenne peppers) and also the sour taste of dressing combined from the lemon and orange juice....YUM!
Hope you'll like my idea with leftover roasted chicken and Happy Thanksgiving!
