Thanksgiving side dishes/9 recipes

This is always a hit! I tweaked it by using 1/2 c oil and 3/4 c orange juice and it turned out great. We made these into muffins and put them in gift bags for our out-of-town guests at our wedding and they all loved them. For muffins, we baked at 350 for 25 minutes and it made about 22 muffins per batch.

"A Contest winning recipe from Oma Rollison (my mother) featured in Reminisce Magazine with her now famous Banana's 'N Cream Bundt cake.

Miso and sesame paste made a delicious base for the stew. Soba noodles and tofu absorbed all the yumminess. Carrots, corn and peas added beautiful color to the stew. Tatsoi could be easily replaced by spinach, kale or Swiss chard. A wholesome and filling Asian style stew.

We liked it very much. The flavour is strong so make sure you serve it to those who like fish or cut down on the smoked salmon.

That was the lunch we made yesterday, and we made a few changes (see the linked recipe below). We used cheddar instead of velveeta cheese, fresh broccoli, and omitted the butter. An easy-one-dish meal and quite tasty.
