I am like a kid around the holidays, especially when it comes to the food. I look forward to the delicious feast of goodies that is usually bountiful this time of year. Pumpkin pie, frosted sugar cookies, delicious rolls, roasted turkey, etc. I love the hearty food of the season. The problem is, I look forward to this food so much that I just cannot take the anticipation. I typically end up making these things before the holidays even arrive and by the time we sit down for our holiday meal, I have already had my fill of it all in the weeks prior.

This year I have had a turkey hankering for quite some time. Instead of waiting to appease my appetite on Thanksgiving day, I have been making turkey, turkey and more turkey.  By the time Thanksgiving gets here, I will most likely be sick of turkey, but you know what? In the meantime we have enjoyed some delicious meals, so different from the traditional roasted turkey, that I may still find room on Thanksgiving day for a little turkey on my plate.

One of my favorites so far is a recipe adapted from the December 2004 issue of Cooking Light magazine. Turkey Cutlets with Smoky Black Bean Sauce was so easy to put together and it gave what can sometimes be bland turkey a whole new life. If you are in the mood for turkey, go ahead and indulge a little early this year. With a recipe like this, it will just leave you wishing for more!

    I don’t see much use anymore of the bottle liquid smoke and I’ve always liked and used it. This looks terrific with the black beans Kirsten!

    I love that you aren’t waiting. Why should be just anticipate the single day when we can spread and enjoy the season for even more than 1 day.

    Wow…spicy black beans and Turkey cutlets. I am a fan of going in slightly different directions for Thanksgiving (last year we had pumpkin lasagne!), so this was a nice recipe to find this week with the big Turkey Day looming close.
