Spousal unit is working Sunday/Monday, so like last year I'm making a taco bar. Ground beef tacos, chipotle cilantro shredded chicken tacos (that is AMAZING), and pork tacos with raisins and toasted almonds. Next up are the chocolate eggnog cookies, and tomorrow or possibly later tonight I'm going to try and crank out a batch of madolines and hopefully dip some of 'em in chocolate.
I prefer NYE cooking to Christmas as it's a lot more informal. It's also a lot more work! Christmas this year was amazingly easy, that mango ham that Elizabeth supplied the recipe for was crazy simple to make, as were my glazed carrots. Even the flourless chocolate cake is actually pretty easy. I'm sure the others put in a lot more work in to our Christmas dinner than I did.
I think I over-reduced the sauce for the chicken tacos which just made it even more concentrated and yummy.
