This dish is so easy yet impressive it could just as easily be made on a Tuesday evening or hang with the turkey and stuffing on the Thanksgiving table. By far the easiest way to prepare sweet potatoes—no peeling! Sliced, then tossed with five spice and cumin and then roasted to tender perfection. In the meantime, a very fridge and pantry friendly creamy sauce is made from tahini, chili crisp and honey with a final swirl of Greek yogurt—it hits all the notes—sweet, heat, savory, nutty, zesty—thi Thanksgiving Sides, Thanksgiving Recipes, Beef Recipes For Dinner, Vegetarian Recipes, Spicy Sauce, Chili Sauce, Cooked Veggies, Vegetables

This cake features all the familiar (and delicious) flavors of the Holidays—the tartness of cranberries, the honeyed notes of orange, the depth of rich Simply Organic Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste—all combined into tender cake made even more delicious with the addition of ricotta. To make things even more Holiday-party ready, I’ve baked mine in a Bundt pan, so all it needs is a generous dusting of powdered sugar—though feel free to add a glaze or decorate anyway festive way you like.

No crust! Sometimes, all I want is the pumpkin without the hassle of rolling out dough—and this recipe might be my new favorite. Five spice and maple bring those warm Holiday flavors into the custard, while the truly addicting—and easy—crumble topping gives you all the buttery crunch you could want from pecans, oats and—yup, more maple syrup. Just add vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and watch it disappear.

This dish is packed with major umami flavor — while the brussels sprouts are the featured veg, it’s really the fish sauce vinaigrette that gives the dish it’s punch. That super addicting funky, earthy, caramel-y flavor is balanced out with honey and lime for a very versatile vinaigrette that’s great splashed on salads or any meaty white fish like cod or halibut. For the brussels, the key here is roasting them on a very high heat to get those crispy edges and leaves (make sure to include any that Crispy Eggplant, Halibut, Fresh Mozzarella, Brussels Sprouts, Fish Sauce, Veggie Sides, Italian Seasoning

Sweet succulent scallops are the perfect pairing with roasted root vegetables, creating a dish that’s both belly-filling but also elegant. I’ve partnered with my friends at Lidl to develop a recipe using their MSC-certified Frozen North Atlantic Sea Scallops. I love the mix scallops with the heartiness of potatoes, sweet potatoes and carrots but other root vegetables such as parsnips would be fabulous—the key here is to cut everything the same uniform size for equal cooking time.

This is the kind of dish that I want to eat on a cold winter’s evening—it’s hearty, it’s comforting, and it combines the caramelized umami-laden goodness of onions with the creamy tenderness of risotto, plus. I’ve added mushrooms to round out the dish. Like the traditional French Onion Soup, I’ve used beef stock, but if you want to make it vegetarian swap it out for vegetable stock plus a splash of balsamic.

When do I love salad? All year long! This salad can hold its own on the Holiday buffet table—it’s the perfect combination of luxurious but still bright and fresh. And yep, it’s all about the luxurious warm brown butter balsamic dressing—nutty, rich, bright and a bit decadent—which pairs beautifully with hearty, bitter radicchio, the sweet-tart zing of oranges, and the pop of pomegranate seeds. Plus, it’s a looker—all those jewel tones make this salad shine.

Salsa di Noci is a traditional Italian sauce from Liguria that’s creamy, nutty and rich—and even better it’s made from mostly pantry and fridge staples and comes together in a food processor in a snap, much like pesto does (traditionally it’s made with a mortar and pestle). I’ve tossed mine with macaroni for mac ‘n cheese vibes, but any noodle will do. Ligurian Nonna’s may balk, but I’ve added a touch of miso as it plays so well with the savory pecorino notes, and instead of whole milk I’ve used Walnut Sauce, Cannellini Beans, Toasted Walnuts, Mac N Cheese, Grilled Pork, How To Cook Pasta, Yummy Dinners

So, I’ve come to realize that I love rustic baking because I don’t usually have the 2 requirements for fancy baking—patience and precision. But what I do love is family-style easy desserts with big flavor, and I love them even more if they involve anything apple. A pandowdy (or pan dowdy) dates back to the 18th century (it was a favorite of Abigail Adams, no less) and is essentially a combination of cobbler and pie.

Over the years I have made hundreds of frittatas—I started making them in the summer years ago with a beach house full of hungry housemates to feed and has since become a weekend staple in my kitchen. They are truly my go-to for feeding a crowd, as they are pretty much fail-proof and always so impressive to bring to the table.

This recipe is the ultimate low-lift high-reward situation that’s perfect for Tuesday quick dinner or Saturday entertaining. Everything happens on a sheet pan and is done in about 20 minutes. Umami-rich gochujang and soy are balanced out with the floral sweetness of honey for a very flavorful and forgiving marinade—the salmon can be marinated from 10 minutes up to 8 hours, but if you’re in a hurry you can also liberally brush the marinade on the salmon and broil right away.
