Cajun Style Baked Sweet Potato
Even the sweet potato/yam "dis-liker" (me) liked the flavor of these. Nice little bite from the cayenne. And the amount of sugar was just right. I don't care for really "sweet" yam dishes at all! Thanks for this addition to our holiday dinner. (Part of my "Thanksgiving 2010" Menu)
Sage Roasted Potatoes
A classic dish from rural France that is perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas or any family get together. It matches perfectly with roast turkey.
Herbed Pan Gravy
An incredibly tasty gravy, you can use the giblets or just some chicken stock if your prefer. My mother likes to use both beef and chicken stock to improve the color of the gravy.
Perfect Turkey
I have been making Thanksgiving dinner for 14 years and have made turkey several different ways. This turkey recipe is now one of my top two favorites! It was perfect for a non-Thanksgiving turkey craving. I saved the drippings to make gravy for open-faced turkey sandwiches with mashed potatoes the next night. Delish!!! Thanks for making turkey fun during the "off-season"!
Spiked Cranberry Relish
Raw cranberry-orange relish sweetened with sugar and spiked with whiskey at the last minute. Bold Thanksgiving condiment with zero cooking.
Spiced Cider with Cranberries (crockpot)
Slow cooker spiced cranberry cider, apple cider mulled low with cranberries, orange, and a generous mix of cinnamon, clove, star anise, and candied ginger. A fragrant, hands-off hot drink for fall and holiday gatherings.
Homemade Hoppers
Homemade hoppers, the iconic Sri Lankan bowl-shaped crepe made from a fermented rice flour and coconut milk batter. Lacy-crisp at the edges, soft and spongy in the center, ready for curry, jam, or butter.
Banana Bran Muffins
Whole wheat banana bran muffins made with no butter or oil. Ripe bananas and low-fat yogurt keep them moist while unprocessed bran and whole wheat flour pack in the fiber. A healthy grab-and-go breakfast in 30 minutes.
Apple, Celery & Cranberry Salad with Creamy Lemon Vinaigrette
Crunchy sweet apples and savory celery with bits of sweet dried cranberry and toasted walnuts are tossed with a refreshing and tasty lemon dressing.
Cooked Cranberry-Orange Relish
This homemade cranberry sauce is better than anything you get from a can!
Green Beans with Lemon Dill Dressing
This quick, easy and refreshing green bean salad is a great side dish in any occasion.
Apple Beet Salad with Creamy Diil Dressing
Tangy and tasty salad that combines fall/winter fruit and beets with a creamy dressing. Feel free to use canned or pickled beets in place of the fresh beets to save time.
