Southern Cornbread Dressing Video Don’t see the video, disable your ad blocker. Why You’ll Love This We look forward to this side dish every year. My southern grandmother made the most incredible dressing ever! This is my version; unfortunately, I never received her recipe. A classic side dish that is always on the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner table. Serve it alongside dry brined roasted turkey, fresh green bean casserole, and cranberry sauce slices....

This recipe is extremely versatile, use whatever color peppers you have on hand, and adjust the heat level to your liking, from just a hint of heat to inferno-in-your-mouth. This sweet and spicy pepper jelly is one of my favorite recipes from my canning ebook series, That’s My Jam. It’s been a few years since I’ve made it, but recently a glut of peppers from our CSA left me no other choice than to make a batch or two....

I’ve been working on a little side project for the last few months, and while it’s not 100% finished yet (close! so close!)

I have many friends and relatives who can’t eat certain foods. Including a family member who has celiac disease so can’t eat anything containing gluten. As a foodie, I’ve made it my mission to make sure these friends and family members have the BEST recipes available to them despite their dietary restrictions. I consider it giving back, food blogger-style. So I’m always dreaming up delicious gluten-free recipes and so many more....

I’ve quickly become a mahoooosive fan of the Instant Pot, and it seems like everyone else has too. It’s quick, convenient, and versatile… what’s not to love?? Oh, and it’s also quiet. Electric pressure cookers are brilliant like that: exceptionally quiet compared to standard pressure cookers. No more jumping out of your chair when the pressure finally builds up and steam shoots out of the rattling pressure weight. Nope, they’re barely audible at all (especially when there’s background noise, like the kiddoes playing in the other room)....

Last Thanksgiving post, I promise. I’ve made an executive decision not to post the stuffing and the Brussels sprouts recipe, but if you are interested, you can find them online here and here. That’s not saying they weren’t good, they were; they just weren’t extraordinary and frankly, it’s two weeks after Thanksgiving and I’ve had enough. These potatoes, however, were worthy of their own post. Seemingly ordinary, maybe, but the simple act of browning the butter prior to adding it to the potatoes adds an extra note of nuttiness and flavor to the dish....
