In-a-Pinch Cranberry Sauce made from Dried Cranberries by Salad FoodieI 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.… |

Homemade Refried Beans by John SpottiswoodI'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that… |

Korean potato side dish by John SpottiswoodI always love these sweet and salty braised potatoes when they are served along with kimchi and various other side dishes at korean restaurants.

Potatoes With Parsley and Garlic - Pommes Parsillade by John SpottiswoodThese are the fantastic potatoes you've probably had in a french bistro...the ones that weren't pommes frites (french fries). They are best served immediately when the crisp exterior contrasts so nicely with the warm, soft interior. We served these with a lentils and sausage recipe that I will post shortly. The combination was… |

Sweet Zucchini Pickles by Salad FoodieToo many zucchini - what to do? A recipe by Chuck Allen (Palm Springs) caught my eye. Expectations are high from this retired chef, so he takes this recipe as a hostess gift. It is as colorful as it is delicious and lasts about 6 weeks refrigerated.
