I created this cozy tofu vegetable pot pie recipe, a vegetarian version of the usual chicken pot pie. It's perfect for a cold winter day; it's so satisfying that store-bought will never be the same.

- 0.5 teaspoons oregano
- salt and ground black pepper to taste

- 0.67 cups milk
- 1.5 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

Pear Galette with Ginger
This pear galette is an informal, rustic pie, made free-form, without a pie pan. This recipe is made even easier, with a purchased, refrigerated pie crust. Prepare the ingredients as the pie crust comes to room temperature. You can make a pear galette with Bosc or Anjou pears, but using red pears provides a beautiful color. Candied ginger adds a special touch, along with a tiny amount of bourbon.
Roasted Oranges with Thyme
Served as a side dish or an appetizer, this sweet-savory combination of roasted oranges and thyme is intriguing.
