Recipes and tips for foods you might want to serve for Winter holiday celebrations, special occasions, or just because you want something a little fancy.
Garlic Studded Ham with Cherry Glaze in the Nesco is my take on the wonderful specialty ham studded with garlic with a peppery bite to it. If you have not had it, I encourage you to find it and have it. In the meantime, please make this and wow your family and friends. Once you have had this style of ham, you won’t go back. Roasting it in a Nesco electric roaster makes it even easier without drying out.
For a lighter, less eggy, eggnog, look no further than this Almost Eggless Eggnog. It’s a breeze to make and very tasty.
Chocolate fruitcake is an amazing cake nothing like the fruitcake you might be familiar with. This moist cake is rich in chocolate, chocolate chips, fruits, nuts, and booze. The batter makes enough for one springform cake and 6 muffins. For the best flavor, the cake should age for about a month. Enjoy!

As good as holiday breakfast casseroles are, they are full of fat and carbs. I wanted to make a casserole that wasn’t so fat heavy but would have all the good flavors of the high-calorie one. Let me show you how to make a skinny breakfast casserole.
Apple cranberry sauce isn’t just for the holidays. With very little sugar, have it on yogurt or spread it on toast. Making it in the Instant Pot just made things a lot easier.
This is a great dish to have on a cold fall or winter night and comes together quickly thanks to the help of the Instant Pot.
You really do want to learn how to debone turkey so you can have a moist bird that everyone will love and is very easy to carve.

This cake is called a Million Dollar pound cake for a reason. It is amazingly rich, moist and buttery tasting. It’s also simple to make with an electric mixer and with very few ingredients, you probably have everything you need to make it right now.
