Lemony Yogurt Brussels Sprouts Casserole
Brussel sprouts often get a bad wrap! This Lemony Yogurt Brussels Sprouts Casserole is a lighter, fresher way to serve them. I'm always trying to come up with new ways to serve Brussels Sprouts and this recipe is definitely a keeper. This method would also work with broccoli or cauliflower.

Bundt Pan Spice Cake with Sticky Toffee Sauce
I know this Bundt Pan Spice Cake with Sticky Toffee Sauce is a bit over the top sweet, but I made it anyway. The gooey toffee sauce kicks it up a notch with a shot of rye whiskey.

Zebra-Striped Shortbread Cookies
My daughter Zoe made these Zebra-Striped Shortbread Cookies, a wonderful combination of vanilla and chocolate shortbread! Each bite of these cookies has just the right amount of both. Stacking the dough in alternating colors and then smushing them into a roll is as easy as making shapes with Play-Doh. The method makes for a fancy-looking swirl that novices can succeed at too.

Homemade Green Bean Casserole with Crispy Leeks
You might have a go-to green bean casserole recipe, but you have to try this Homemade Green Bean Casserole with Crispy Leeks. The thin, crispy fried leeks are an absolutely delicious topper and look way more elegant than the canned fried onions. They fry up very quickly; keep a close watch on them as they cook.

Red Pepper, Garlic & Pecorino Gourgères
These Red Pepper, Garlic & Pecorino Gourgères are divine. A perfect make-ahead hors d'heurves for your holiday party, or any party! Gourgères is a baked savory choux pastry made of choux dough mixed with cheese. Basically, they are cheese puffs. These infuse puréed red pepper and garlic into them. I very recently posted a recipe for plain cheese Gourgères.

Parmesan Cheese Biscuits
When my husband and I lived in London, our eccentric friend Sandra introduced us to these Parmesan Cheese Biscuits. They are very easy to make and unusual. I use mini cookie cutters and cut them into shapes – usually pigs or Scottie dogs. Unfortunately, couldn't find fun shapes for this batch. These would go well with any cocktail.

Gourgères
Gourgères is a baked savory choux pastry made of choux dough mixed with cheese. Basically, they are cheese puffs. My daughter Zoe, went to a book signing for this new book by Rebekah Peppler, Apéritif, Cocktail Hour the French Way. She says the French have perfected the casual, pre-dinner practice of drinks and snacks. I thought Eric and I had perfected that! Anyway, it's a wonderful book and the cheese puffs are great for any party.

Dutch Oven Bread
I made this Dutch Oven Bread in my Lodge cast iron pan. Making crispy, crusty, golden loaves of bread at home has never been easier. It all starts with bread baking in a Dutch oven (heavy lidded pot). It's the perfect vessel for making artisanal style bread.
