	In-a-Pinch Cranberry Sauce made from Dried Cranberries by Salad Foodie I serve turkey year round but forget to keep canned cranberry sauce on hand; even when I do it's hard to use up the whole can because not everone eats it. Recently the craving for cranberries with roast turkey breast was too strong. I grabbed the Craisin bag from the pantry and experimented making a small amount of cranberry sauce.…	2 votes 1 review 5124 views
	Cumin Rice by Joyce Leung This rice is a delicious mix of cumin and cinnamon. It provides a nice, slightly sweet flavor, that is a perfect complement to any middle eastern dish. The only dishes I would avoid serving this with are sweet dishes with dates, figs, etc. I served it with my Braised Lamb with Beans. It was great!	7 votes 4 reviews 1 comment 20775 views

	Sweet Zucchini Pickles by Salad Foodie Too many zucchini - what to do? A recipe by Chuck Allen (Palm Springs) caught my eye.

	Mashed Potatoes and Cabbage (Colcannon) by Salad Foodie A perfect way to boost nutrition in mashed potatoes, this is a favorite Irish side dish but can certainly appear at Oktoberfest in late September with bratwurst or sauerbraten.

	Kale with Kalamata Olives by Salad Foodie Kale is hearty and healthy, and often teams in winter soups with potatoes and beans. But in this recipe, based on Deborah Madison’s Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone, it takes center stage. Quick to prepare it is a pleasant change from other green sides. Don’t let the volume of a one pound bunch of kale scare you off - it cooks down!	1 vote 2147 views
