Caramel Apple Chicken

When we entertain, I love a serving a caramel apple topped Brie. I adapted the recipe to use in a chicken dish. It is easy, flavourful, and company loves it. The saltiness of the bacon, the sweetness of the topping and the crunchiness of apples, pecans and cranberries all work well together. I serve it with a wild rice, pecan and mushroom side dish. Any green salad works well, especially one with a bit of tartness, Balsamic vinegar or Dijon mustard. Citrus is also nice.

Bison Meatballs With Cider Mustard Sauce

Bits of savoury bacon make lean bison meatballs extra indulgent. We use boxed beef stock instead of broth for a more concentrated, meaty flavour. If you like, substitute lean ground beef for the bison. To keep the meatballs warm throughout the party, place them in a small slow cooker set on low heat.
