Acorn Squash Stuffing With Za'atar
If you're looking for a holiday stuffing that can be cooked outside the bird, reach for this wonderful winter recipe. We stuffed acorn squashes with it but you can simply bake it in a dish. Za'atar is a Middle Eastern spice made out of sesame seeds, sumac, thyme, salt, oregano, and marjoram and it adds such a wonderful flavor to this stuffing that it might become your new favorite spice.

Bake the halved acorn squashes and use the flesh as part of the stuffing. Combine it with bread, vegetables, herbs (dried and fresh) and chicken stock (or vegetable to keep the whole dish vegetarian). Ready in 1 hour and 10 minutes.

Broccoli Cheese Casserole
Vegetable gratins make excellent holiday side dishes, and our recipe for broccoli coated in a cheesy sauce is perfectly decadent and holiday-appropriate. Rich and buttery, with a touch of crunch from the almonds, the casserole is simple to make and super flavorful.

The filling of condensed soups and Velveeta cheese also makes a creamy sauce that you could use on pasta bakes. Top your casserole with buttery breadcrumbs and bake at 375 F until the cheese is bubbling.

Cranberry Coulis
Sweet and tart cranberry coulis makes a tasty puréed accompaniment for roast turkey, duck, chicken, or game meats. Invest 30 minutes in making this special sauce and spruce up your traditional cranberry sauce.

Cook cranberries, orange juice and its zest, sugar, cinnamon, cloves and Triple Sec, Cointreau, or Grand Marnier. Reduce on medium heat and process in a blender. This sauce freezes well so you can make bigger batches and freeze for other special meals throughout the year.
