Using this hack for Instant Pot Hungarian Goulash, you can get the deep flavor from hours of slowing simmering in a Dutch Oven, and the speed of Instant Pot will make it all happen in under an hour!
Asian Chicken with Molasses Glaze and Rice is a great combination of molasses, ginger, soy sauce, and garlic. This is easy to make, a dish perfect for a weeknight and ready in about an hour.
This German Chocolate Velvet Cake really is the ultimate chocolate cake. It has the velvety texture of Red Velvet cake, deep dark chocolate flavor, mocha frosting, and coconut-pecan filling and topping. Even people who don’t like chocolate cake, or who don’t like coconut love this cake.
I grew up with and loved my grandmother’s famous Glazed Lemon Jello cake. The Jello in the cake makes it moist and stays that way. This cake won’t dry up if you leave it on your plate for a moment or two.
This Italian sausage stuffing is not as easy as the stuff in the box you make on the stovetop, but if you are going to have one star of your holiday table, it should be this stuffing.
These balsamic caramelized onions go very well with the Roasted Duck with Raspberry Sauce, as well as on burgers, with cheese, on toast, just about anywhere – they are sweet and tart at the same time.
Roasting in an electric NESCO roaster oven delivers juicy meat and crisp skin every time. Prick the skin, use the rack to keep it out of the fat, and pair with raspberry sauce for a perfect balance of rich and tangy flavor.
Caramel Sweet Potato Casserole is a little different than the one you usually see at the holiday table. Is it sweet? You betcha! But it’s more interesting because it has caramel, pineapple, and cashews – marshmallows are optional.
Twice Baked Potato Casserole is great for a special occasion. My adopted mother used to make twice baked potatoes in the potato skin and everyone loved them. They were one of her specialties that she served at important dinner parties. I took her basic recipe and made it quicker and easier, but still just as delicious.
Green Beans with Toasted Garlic Almonds will make you forget about that green bean casserole you have been bemoaning for years. This has excellent flavor and is easy to make any time.
