Holiday/3 recipes

My mother and I made these cookies when I was little, many years ago, using the box of dry mincemeat. I have looked for years for the recipe, they are the best cookies ever!!!

A very simple and healthy way to prepare the prized Dover sole that highlights its mild, buttery sweet flavor.

A delicious kind of salad made with mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, flaked coconut and whipped topping.

An Eastern European pastry with a rich history and cultural significance. They are traditionally made from a simple dough consisting of cream cheese, butter, and flour, and filled with sweet fillings like jam, nuts, or cheese.

These cookies are buttery and flakey, love the walnut filling that gives the cookies just enough nuttiness and sweetness. Well balanced flavor, and cute little pockets, just can not have enough of them.

These apple and oat muffins are so moist, and they are delicious too, good for breakfast or a tasty snack.

Quick and easy, it is a great breakfast, you can bake these lovely quiche in the earlier morning, you can also make them in advance and freeze them.

This Jamaican Sweet Potato Pudding cake is smooth and creamy, the coconut milk, raisins and rum add huge flavor to this dessert.

Absolutely delicious in every way. The lime and garlic marinade works it's wonders and permeated the loin wonderfully. (We marinaded for two days :) The onion marmelade paired perfectly, it actually tasted like apples and everything was easy to prepare.

I have made a Thanksgiving goose every year for at least 15 years. I have steadily gained on making the perfect bird but I finally found the greatest recipe ever in Cook's Magazine. The divine part of this approach to cooking the goose is that it employs some of the eastern method of drying the skin which is used in Peking Duck. The skin simply drops all its fat and leaves a crispy, dry, delectable skin that folks fight over! No more rubbery, yucky goose skin full of fat!

Just like Santa, I have big orders to fill when it comes to the holidays. Everyone wants me to make them some.

A great healthy chinese chicken. The heart-healthy walnuts add a great taste and texture to this low in fat dish.

Chock full of beef and loads of veggies that suck up the flavor of the red wine, herbs and garlic. Make up a large batch on the weekend and freeze in individual portions in zipper bags for up to 3 months.

This homemade cranberry sauce is better than anything you get from a can!

It's not the double-down, but it's as close as you can get! The ultimate crunch and moistest lean pork chops you will ever experience.

Perfectly cooked juicy pork tenderloin marinated in mustard and thyme served with a white wine cream sauce. This sauce is perfect for the pork and any sides such as steamed potatoes and carrots.
