DoveTailing Tips

Prepare an extra 1/2 cup of pomegranate arils to use day 5 in the Winter Fruit Salad.

When making the crust, triple the recipe for the pies on days 4 and 5

Make an additional cup of whipping cream when making the whipping cream for this recipe. Save and use the extra day 5 in the Pecan Cream Pie.

Instead of buying canned cranberry sauce you could use the homemade Cranberry Sauce recipe from day 4. If you decide to do that, make sure to make enough to use that day instead of having to make more!




DoveTailing Tips

Buy a large enough pot raost to have leftovers to use day 5 in the Leftover Pot Roast Patty Melts.

Make a large batch of these potatoes to have day 4.




DoveTailing Tips

When chopping the pecans chop another 2 1/4 cup pecans for Pecan Streusel pie on day 4 and Pecan Cream Pie on day 5. 1/2 a cup needs to be chopped coarsely while the remainder can be finely chopped.




DoveTailing Tips

Use the extra potatoes that you made on day 2 instead of making a new batch!

Use the pie crust that you prepared on day 1.

Use 3/4 cup of the pecans you prepared on day 3.

If you made this recipe on day 1 for the Cranberry Jello Salad make sure to use it today!




DoveTailing Tips

Use the pomegranate arils that you prepared on day 1.
