Coconut Curry Butternut Squash Soup
Very filling and even a little zesty, this butternut squash soup is a decadent appetizer. Butternut squash is hearty on its own, but the coconut milk curry makes the mixture truly rich. Serve with a warm baguette.
Harvey's Moroccan Roast Chicken
Paprika, fresh mint, and lemon make the best rub for this roast chicken. It roasts slowly under the foil and turns out so juicy and flavorful. I throw baby carrots and cut potatoes in the bottom of the pan and it makes a full meal! For a spicier version of this recipe use 'hot' paprika. It seems like a lot of work to get all the spices together--but it's SO worth it. My husband asks for it once a week.
