I adore mushrooms - they are so versatile and add depth and flavor to almost any recipe, without overwhelming your tastebuds.

A staple of my childhood Christmas memories, this neon green dish actually brings back very fond memories! My grandmother always had green Jello salad on her table, and serving it with dinner was my entire excuse to eat a large helping of sugar before dessert.This classic side dish is a beautiful addition to a special meal and only takes minutes to prepare!

I’m one of those people that can totally get behind Brussels sprouts, as long as they’re paired with another flavor. Add some bacon, or in this case, cranberries and pecans, and you have my full interest. Something about mixing in other flavors makes Brussels sprouts especially delicious. So if you’re not sure if you’ll like them, try them again with a twist!

They are easy to make and easy to transport making them a great option for brining along to a holiday party or holiday dinner.
