3 Fun Recipes on How To Repurpose Thanksgiving Leftovers 🦃 🌽 🥧
for my leftovers I like to make hand pies. They are a pain to make (I don't do putzy very well), but I love me a flaky crust and they also freeze well so I can make a bunch and pop them in the freezer for later.
Just the two of us this year because of covid, but I'm making the whole meal and making mini-meals for some friends who also won't be with family.
My favorite dessert for Thanksgiving and Christmas is Nantucket Cranberry Pie from Laurie Colwin's 'More Home Cooking'. It's kind of like a giant butter cookie with a cranberry topping. Not at all healthy, but so very, very delicious.
Your book is on my Christmas wishlist. 🙂
So easy to grate nutmeg and lasts so much longer than pre-grated.
I love your sweet and spicy sweet potato bake! I make it every year!
My mom makes cornbread stuffing/dressing. That's her Thanksgiving 'job'.
Yes we have a zillion Fall/Autumn recipes!!

Did you wake up today and realize there's only 2 WEEKS until Thanksgiving? Luckily these Savory Quick Breads can be whipped up in about 10 minutes. Some bake in only 9 minutes - some take longer. But they're all perfect for the Holiday Table - or just for a pot of soup!
I can even smell the fresh bread, when you held it up and the steam rose.
Thank you so much!
Still the shiitake dressing for me again. My family would not forgive me.
Oh, my mouth is watering!

Make sure you cheese is a bit chilled before mixing into your quick bread batter

Love the idea of savory biscuits w/the meal. We are going way small this year, so I have no idea yet.

Now I feel dumb. Why didn't I think of that?
{Deanna} Our uber-talented friend and colleague Robin Plotkin of Board Mama was on California Strawberries Facebook LIVE today showing how easy and fast it is to build a GORGEOUS strawberry charcuterie board!
Great for after-school snacking, light meals or social distancing safe events (or make one as a holiday gift for someone special this season!)
I want this for dinner now.....
Thanks to The Book Club Cookbook for sponsoring our cookbook in their new giveaway (see post to enter.)
I (Deanna) actually made these Greek ZucchinI Pita Nachos for a few friends this weekend for an outdoor, socially distanced dinner. Instead of broiling them to melt the cheese- I put them in a 400 degree oven that I had used for something else. Well, I forgot about them and finally pulled them out 20 minutes later- what I thought would be a disaster resulted in very crispy pita pieces (vs, softer like flatbread) and crisp ends of the melted cheese. Another variation on the original recipe!Greek Zucchini Pita Nachos from EASY EVERYDAY MEDITERRANEAN DIET: 125 Delicious Recipes from the Healthiest Lifestyle on the Planet by Serena Ball and Deanna Seagrave-Daly of Teaspoon of Spice! Pita triangles topped with roasted zucchini, cheese, tomato salsa, Greek yogurt-olive sauce, and olives.
"We often combine different cuisines together in our kitchens and here Tex-Mex meets Mediterranean because we love nachos that much."-Serena Ball and Deanna Seagrave-Daly
This new collection of 125 healthful and delicious recipes based on the Mediterranean lifestyle, with recipes for pasta, whole grains, roasted vegetables, hearty breads dipped in olive oil, and more, all of which can be made in 30 minutes or less, and some in just 20 minutes.
