Winter Foodie Favorties

Do you have a recipe that brings back feelings of holiday cheer?
Here are some of my favorite belly warming dishes for the holiday season.

1. Biscuits and Jelly
My mom used to make these for my sister and I.  Take a canister of biscuits or whip up your own if you're fancy like that and pack them tightly together in a greased pan.  Use your thumb to make a depression in the center of each biscuit and fill with one teaspoon of your favorite jam, jelly, or preserve.  Back at temp. indicated on the package until biscuits are brown.  Serve and eat immediately, as if you could wait any longer!

Tip: Line pan with foil for easy removal.









2. Tamales
 Everyone's tamale recipe is different.  I didn't grow up making tamales but I made these with my best friend this year and they were phenomenal!!!!!.  My favorite are green chile and cheese.  It is definitely a labor of love, so call on the loves of your life and create an assembly line of fun.




3. One pot meals: Corned Beef and Potatoes

The spices of corned beef and 2 cups of chicken stock flavor the potatoes and carrots beautifully.  Served with a bright spinach salad tossed in a light vinaigrette dressing.   Hearty and Flavorful!
