My least favorite side on the Thanksgiving spread was once cranberry sauce. Then it was my turn to prepare this giant feast. Being the budding foodie that I was at the time, I tweaked all the recipes with new ingredients and flavors that peaked my interest. Three years later, I can’t seem to get enough of these things on Thanksgiving, and (gasp) I may make them again. This side dish/ leftover tastes great on bagels, oatmeal, yogurt, and just as is by themselves.

Hello, This recipe as ever is so simple and quick to make. It serves as a great pudding to round off a Greek salad or other light lunch. Healthy too!

I’m always looking for new things to add to my black bean burgers. I don’t usually eat them with a bun so just the burger alone is never enough. One of the first recipes I flipped to when I got Sarah Matheny’s cookbook was the Spanish Quinoa. Bingo! I love the versatility of quinoa and I already know I am going to love the flexibility of this gem of a recipe. Tasty on a burger, tasty as a side……really tasty when potato chips (preferably Wavy Lays) are used as the spoon!

We recently had a deli dinner night with the works: corned beef, pastrami, potato salad, cole slaw, rye bread and pickles. To top off the deli experience I made kugel! I had barely enough noodles, but no apples. I peeked through my pantry and found applesauce. I thought, “Surely there must be some sort of awesome substitute using applesauce instead of chopped apples.” And sure enough, there is!
