Rosemary Roasted Butternut Squash
Butternut squash is roasted in this dish with fresh rosemary, garlic, and olive oil. Makes an outstanding side dish with pork, fish, and chicken. Butternut squash is a staple in my house during the fall months.
Sweet and Sour Cabbage Soup
This hearty sweet and sour cabbage soup is my version of an old favorite Ashkenazi Jewish recipe. I make a stock first, then make the soup. This allows for de-fatting the soup, but you need to make this on two days, so time accordingly. Using savoy cabbage gives the soup superlative texture and flavor.
Better than Cracker Barrel Chicken 'n Dumplings
My Grandma grew up on a farm and this was her recipe - no shortcuts but still pretty easy. For best results you must use a whole chicken and flour. You can also use some chicken stock for added flavor. The trick is the lemon, which makes the chicken tender and adds flavor to the soup. Leftovers won't last very long with this.
