Perfect Mashed Potatoes Everybody seems to have their favorite way of making mashed potatoes. Some cook them with the peel on, some without. Some add a little of the cooking water to the mashed potatoes for extra starch. I have found that the single thing that makes the biggest difference for making perfect creamy, heavenly potatoes is the type of potatoes you use. Continue reading "Perfect Mashed Potatoes" » Read more → Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pomegranate-Balsamic Glaze I started eating Brussels sprouts as a kid when my preschool served them boiled for lunch. You'd think that serving unseasoned, boiled Brussels sprouts would be the worst way to expose a child to the vegetable but, surprisingly, I was undeterred. Brussels sprouts are still one of my favorite fall vegetables, though these days I prefer them roasted instead of boiled. Here I've paired roasted Brussels sprouts with a sweet and tangy pomegranate-balsamic glaze. This makes a great side dish for Thanksgiving or any fall meal.

There are times when all we need is a big bowl of comfort. That is exactly what we're making here with this ham and cheese pasta bake. I made a batch the other day and sent it home with my parents.

Latest recipes from Simply Recipes.   Here is your update from Simply Recipes. There are 4 new posts. Happy cooking! Classic Green Bean Casserole from Scratch Our family, like every other family at Thanksgiving, is no stranger to green bean casserole, with its crunchy fried onion topping and rich, creamy filling. Truth be told, it's one of my favorites, along with the jellied cranberry sauce. But over the years, I have come to expect more from my green bean casserole than just opening up a few cans of beans, soup, and sprinkling on some prepared fried onions. Here is my totally from-scratch version – you'll never look at green bean casserole the same way again. Continue reading "Classic Green Bean Casserole from Scratch" » Read more → Waldorf Salad Waldorf Salad is a favorite around here, particularly in the fall when apples and walnuts are in season. It's especially popular around the holidays, gracing many a Thanksgiving and holiday spread. According to the American Century Cookbook, the first Waldorf Salad was created in New York City in 1893, by Oscar Tschirky, the maître d'hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria. The original recipe consisted only of diced red-skinned apples, celery, and mayonnaise. Chopped walnuts were added later to this now American classic. Continue reading "Waldorf Salad" » Read more → No-Bake Cheesecake This no-bake vanilla cheesecake is light, creamy, and perfect for any dinner party or holiday gathering. It also eliminates a lot of the worries that might keep you from making a cheesecake in the first place: There's no need for fussy water baths or elaborate cool-down steps. No worries about cracks in the top. No need to even turn on the oven! Leave your no-bake cheesecake plain or top it with your favorite fruit. Either way, this cheesecake is a winner. Continue reading "No-Bake Cheesecake" » Read more → Apple Tart (Paleo, Gluten-Free) The real star of this apple tart is, of course, the apples. Sliced thinly and layered into the tart crust, they make an absolutely stunning holiday dessert. Those slices become golden and caramelized around the edges, while turning tender and juicy underneath. Every bite is subtly sweet and perfect. I also make this with a crust that is paleo-friendly and gluten-free so that everyone at your table can enjoy a slice. Trust me, this crust is just as buttery and crisp as traditional pie crust.

Latest recipes from Simply Recipes.   Here is your update from Simply Recipes. There are 3 new posts. Happy cooking! Sausage, Sage & Cornbread Stuffing Simple swaps can give old favorites new life. In this Thanksgiving stuffing recipe, I swapped traditional cubes of rustic white bread for toasted cornbread to make a stuffing that feels fresh without straying too far from the familiar (and beloved). Cornbread lends a faint sweetness to the stuffing and a distinctive toothsome texture, while flavors like browned sausage and fresh sage strike familiar flavor notes. Cornbread stuffing is also an excellent option for those who need to eat gluten-free. This stuffing ends up closer to a classic Thanksgiving bread stuffing than a true Southern-style cornbread stuffing, but with flavors and ingredients that everyone can enjoy. Continue reading "Sausage, Sage & Cornbread Stuffing" » Read more → Balsamic-Glazed Red Onions Onions are too often the supporting actors in the kitchen when they should be the stars. This stunning dish gives red onions their own glamorous role at the table. Roasted and glazed with balsamic vinegar, these onions can accompany a vegetarian main course or a succulent roast chicken without skipping a beat. Even better: the recipe is so simple that you'll think you're cheating. Continue reading "Balsamic-Glazed Red Onions" » Read more → Turkey Brine I started brining my Thanksgiving turkey a few years ago and haven't looked back. It's my Thanksgiving insurance policy: if I get distracted as I'm making dinner and the turkey overcooks, I know I can still count on the turkey turning out moist and flavorful. What is brining? It means making a salt water solution and submerging the turkey for about 24 hours before roasting. This spa treatment helps the turkey retain more moisture during roasting and prevents it from drying out. A brine also gives me a chance to season the turkey with herbs and spices, especially the skin! Sage and citrus is one of my favorite combinations. It's so festive and makes the house smell amazing.
