Offbeat Recipes

I really liked pairing the stuffing with a creamy gravy. I actually experimented with a non-creamy recipe a few weeks ago, but I wound up really disliking it, so I chose to share this gravy instead.

This recipe, I hope, falls into the unexpected category. It’s rare to find chipotle peppers in mashed potatoes, but they, along with the fresh garlic, add a little bit of a kick and flavor that is entirely satisfying.

Apple crisp is one of the best things ever, ever! It’s got crunchy and salty and spicy all rolled into one. We make it so often, but rarely tire of it, and when we have other fruit around we make several different varieties.

I’m not that good at making pies but these turned out so well. It’s probably a more intensive process to make a bunch of little pies than one big pie, but they are so cute and it’s such a good idea for serving to guests.
