holiday recipes

Here are some great holiday recipes for the upcoming weeks  -- I will update it as I find some good outside links for the holidays!
apple sage dressing -- a great make ahead dressing with sweet crunchy apples and toasted pecans
warm Brussels sprout and apple slaw -- the perfect dish for people who say they hate Brussels sprouts.  Even Jim ate it!
savory bread pudding with pecans and mushrooms -- really just a very creamy and rich dressing
cranberry relish and coconut sweet potato puree -- two of my favorite T-day dishes.  The relish is made with raw cranberries and has a sweet/tart crunch, and the potato puree has a very sophisticated flavor, reminiscent of Indian spices
spiced pecans -- addictive, and they make a great hostess gifts wrapped up in festive little cellophane bags
Goat cheese and sun-dried tomato spread -- warm, luscious, and a perfect appetizer with a glass of champagne
crab-stuffed mushrooms -- great flavors that work well as either an app, or a side dish to a gorgeous roast
fig and goat cheese salad with toasted walnuts  -- figs are still in season, and this is a beautiful opener for any holiday party meal
curry spiced popcorn -- an addictive treat that makes a great hostess gift
turkey stew with stuffing dumplings -- this a light "stew" that is slightly thickened with mashed potatoes, and garnished with yummy dumplings made out of leftover stuffing, a delicious twist on leftovers
standing rib roast -- a method to produce a gorgeous holiday roast that is tender and juicy
