Fresh Cranberry Chutney

November 25, 2019

Cranberry chutney is a sweet and sour condiment made with fresh cranberries, onions, ginger and orange zest. It is a great topping for crostini as an appetizer, but is also delicious on baked chicken. If you love the combination of cranberries and orange, try this Cranberry Orange Upside Down Cake. For even more cranberry goodness, this Apple Cranberry Chicken Salad is one of our go-to lunches.

This recipe for cranberry chutney makes 4 cups (or 1 quart), so it is perfect for gifting to friends and neighbors. Tie a pretty ribbon around a glass jar and take some with you as a hostess gift for holiday parties.

Stuffed Hubbard Squash Recipe

November 14, 2019

Nothing beats this stuffed hubbard squash recipe for the perfect autumnal dinner. Beautiful Hubbard squash filled with wild rice, baby kale and golden raisins, it is a healthy and filling dinner. Ready in about an hour, mostly hands-off cooking time, this is a great low key recipe. If you love stuffed squash, try this quinoa stuffed acorn squash.

Hubbard squash flesh is slightly drier than acorn or butternut and it is a bit earthier in flavor. The bluish-gray color and deep orange flesh is beautiful and makes for a striking contrast.

Any kind of roasted squash is, for me, the perfect fall food and if you like to change up for your holiday side dishes, this would be a great addition to the meal.
