This stuffing bakes by itself after the turkey comes out of the oven. Serve in squares as a side dish like a savoury bread pudding. It's best to use day-old bread.
Savoy cabbage, which is more delicate and mellow than its green cousin, makes a fabulous side dish.
Everyone loves the flavour of fresh peas, and this recipe shows off their sweetness. Serve with baked ham, roast chicken or steamed fish. Or spoon onto crostini and drizzle with your favourite extra-virgin olive oil to make a quick appetizer for your next barbecue.
This is a great, quick, easy and yummy pasta dish. As a child I was brought up with fennel as a snack. It's great after lunch or dinner(sometimes drizzled with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar). If I would bring for lunch at work everyone would think I was eating onions! Not many people have experimented with fennel...so this recipie allows people to experience this great vegetable in a new and delicious way. Enjoy!
This easy stuffing cooks outside the turkey but still gets basted with pan juices. Time the baking with the last hour and 20 minutes of the turkey cooking.
To round out this elegant main course dish, serve it with buttered baby new potatoes. Freshly snipped pea sprouts or pea tendrils make a lovely garnish.
We are movie buffs, and every Oscar night we have a few friends over for cocktails and snacks. Everyone loves this hot cheese dip, which we serve with small cooked new potatoes, crudit?and pita wedges.
