This meat pie is delicious! I got it from my husband's mother. She is French so I believe this is a French meat pie recipe. Beef, pork, and potato are all nicely spiced and baked together. It's yummy and pretty easy to make too! It's best served fresh, but you can also make it ahead and freeze or refrigerate it. Serve the pie by itself or with a beef gravy.

Mini Quiches (Crustless)
A great easy cook ahead dish. I like to make these for my boys to eat for breakfast on the go. Good reheated in the microwave. They freeze wonderfully. I often make these with bratwurst sausage and a teaspoon of leftover Knorr® vegetable-spinach dip. Add mushrooms or olives if you like. You can get creative with ingredients.
Pumpkin Spice Soft Sugar Cookies
If a homemade pumpkin pie and a soft sugar cookie had little cookies of their own, the result might be these pumpkin spice sugar cookies! Add your favorite seasoned nuts if desired.
Cherry Torte with Cherry Prosecco Syrup
This cherry torte with cherry Prosecco syrup is my updated version of the humble cake my mother served for many holidays. Her version, delicious with canned tart cherries, may date back to the Depression. I use frozen dark, sweet bing cherries, and a syrup that is so good you will want to pour it on everything.
