It feels great to be back in Utah, after a 4 day trip to Chicago last week. I was fully expecting to be greeted by a valley filled with snow when I returned, but alas, Utah weather always has a mind of her own. It's been in the 40s-50s with only a Sunday soaked with rain to show for the season. A lot of Utah natives are pretty annoyed that it's not snowing, and that they might not have their picture perfect white Christmas. Me? I think Christmas is Christmas. Snow or no snow. Remember how "it came without packages, boxes, or bags?" Well, I think it can come without snow, too. Christmas is what you make it. It's not determined by the weather patterns - or unusual weather patterns, in our case. We all know Christmas is much more than the external splendor the holidays bring us (including the white stuff that covers our neighborhoods). Much, much, more. And that's why I'm not worried or bothered one bit.
Besides, snow or no snow, there's still plenty of reasons to gather together as a family and enjoy a dinner that required little to no effort to make. This recipe is definitely one of those low-maintenance dinners that will save you plenty of time to finish up those last-minute Christmas tasks at the bottom of your list!
