Chicken or Turkey Tetrazzini Deluxe
Cooked chicken or turkey breast, pasta, veggies, sherry and broth with creamy and cheesy elements, all baked into a classic. This casserole is a great way to use leftover turkey or chicken. Delicious and freezes well too.
'Something Different' Fruit Salad
A little lime, salt, and honey go a long way in this dish created out of sheer boredom. One night last summer we were grilling fish and corn, yet again. When I asked my boyfriend what he wanted as a second side dish, all he said was, 'something different.' I decided to try a twist on the traditional fruit salad that I grew up eating, and it was a huge hit! The best thing about this recipe is that most fruits are great with the dressing, so you can use your favorites or whatever is in season.
Overnight Breakfast Bake with Ham, Cheese, and Croissants
This overnight breakfast casserole is just the right size for smaller families. We love this with cherry tomatoes, but it is equally nice with fruit. You could also call this a savory bread pudding and serve it for lunch, with a salad. If you love mustard, double the Dijon amount in the recipe.
