Cream cheesie corn

Cream cheesie corn by Glenn

I was given the chore of coming up with a new side dish for Thanksgiving. I like corn--particularly when I am eating. I like cream cheese--only when I am eating. Voila, an idea is born. It is easy to make and was rated OMG by my very picky family. There may be ways to improve it but here is an instant classic.

Scalloped Corn and Tomatoes

Scalloped Corn and Tomatoes by Glenn

Westinghouse and Pennsylvania Power and Light Co. put out a cookbook to sell their new electric range and oven in the 1930s. This is one of the recipes made to stand alone. The original small book has 7 menus with a meat, side and desert that were designed to be baked together in the same oven. It relies heavily on canned foods and…

Squash Caserole

Squash Caserole by Kerri Bishop

This recipe is very close to Boston Market's squash casserole. We have always loved this side at the restaurant, but they only have it during the holidays. We made this for Christmas and everyone raved about it. It is really easy to halve the recipe. We have had lots of requests for this recipe. I'd be willing to bet you'll love…

Murphy's Cole Slaw

Murphy's Cole Slaw by Just Cookin'

This recipe sounds so strange I was afraid to taste it. Boy am I glad I did! This is absolutely the best coleslaw I've ever tasted. I'm assuming Murphy's is a restaurant but I'm not sure. I got the recipe from someone else. The dressing is cooked and it's made without mayonnaise. For anyone with a gluten allergy, the ramen noodles…

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND CIDER SOUP

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND CIDER SOUP by Lauren Hahn

Something about the deep golden color of a bowl of Roasted Butternut Squash and Cider Soup just says Thanksgiving Day to me. The weather here in San Francisco is always a bit chilly and foggy. That's best remedied with warm, hearty dishes like this one. Beautiful butternut squash is roasted with butter, sugar and rosemary (for…

Savory Creole Sweet Potato Casserole

Savory Creole Sweet Potato Casserole by Amos Miller

No sweet topping here - this has breadcrumbs & bacon and the Creole twist of Jamaican Pickapeppa Sauce in the yams. It is good to venture outside your comfort zone from time to time - and this is a good way to start! I was set on this culinary path in 1987 when first introduced to Chef Austin Leslie at Chez Helene in New Orleans.…

Hawaiian Crest Salsa

Hawaiian Crest Salsa by Smokinhotchef

I came up with this recipe at the spur of the moment to accompany the shrimp recipe I was preparing for a late lunch get-together with several of my sisters and my brother Ken. I had just visited the supermarket, so I had lots of fresh ingredients on hand. My sister Gayle said this recipe reminded her of Hawaii and crisp freshness…

Double - Triple Carrot Cake

Double - Triple Carrot Cake by Sarah Reid

Twice the nuts and triple the fruits are stuffed into this moist, subtly spicy and perfectly sweet carrot cake. Buttermilk and macadamia nuts up the deliciousness, and flax seed provides some extra nutrition while cutting down on the cholesterol from eggs. Makes two 10" rounds.

Vegan Coconut, Pumpkin and Red Lentil Soup

Vegan Coconut, Pumpkin and Red Lentil Soup by The Blender Girl

I have probably given this recipe to over 100 people. That is not an exaggeration. This soup is really that good! For those of you living in the United States, you will want to substitute sweet potato for the fresh pumpkin. I vary the greens every day depending on what I have available. Chopped green beans work really well. You can…

Roasted Cauliflower and Leek Soup

Roasted Cauliflower and Leek Soup by Colleen Mcconnell

I kept this soup simple to let the subtle flavors of the cauliflower and leeks shine through. I seasoned it with a little bit of fresh thyme, opted for water over broth, and drizzled a little extra virgin olive oil on the top of each serving. This could also be served "loaded" like a potato soup with some crumbled bacon, sharp…
