This Red Cabbage and Carrot Slaw practically screams fall – punctuated with sweet-tart chewy dried cranberries, a little extra crunch from the almonds and a zing from the cumin and mint, it really leans more towards Moroccan cuisine than Mexican or Asian or “good ‘ol” American like some of my other slaws. The flavors, though, adapt to a number of cuisines!
Almond Praline
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and I’ve already decided on one of my desserts. And no, it’s not Almond Praline – this Almond Praline is just one component of one of the fanciest, showstoppers of a dessert I’ve made for a while. It makes sense to go all out for a Holiday, especially when the dessert can be broken down into do-ahead components and assembled last-minute.
Wild Rice Chicken Salad
Can a girl have too many chicken salad recipes? According to my recipe box, NO! Wild Rice Chicken Salad transitions out of the dog days of summer into crisp, cool fall, and after all, nothing says fall to us Northerners quite like wild rice!
Chicken Fruit Salad with Raspberry Dressing
Chicken & Fruit Salad with Raspberry Dressing is one of my fave salads. The whole combo of fruit with salad greens smacks of the 90s and I think I’ve been making this version since around then, originally culled from Cooking Light. On a hot day, there’s nothing better and there’s a little something to please almost anyone!
Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Feta, Berries & Almonds
Brussels Sprouts are always super popular around Thanksgiving, but a salad like Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Feta, Berries & Almonds is gonna take those sprouts and make them super appealing any time of the year. A salad like this will span the seasons.
