Here
are some cozy fall recipes I tried recently. Click on the links to get the recipes.
Pumpkin Soup with Sage and Gruyere Croutons: A soup that’s easy to make and
is incredibly delicious. The recipe title is a bit curious as there aren’t really
croutons with this recipe; really, they are pieces of toast covered with melted
cheese and fresh sage.
Kielbasa with Mashed Potatoes: A super-easy recipe that includes a simple, speedy and
smart way to prepare mashed potatoes. The potatoes are cooked in the microwave
for just 12 minutes, then whole-grain mustard and whole milk are added and the
mixture mashed. Easy-peasy, and very good. I have to admit that to speed up
this recipe even more I skipped the broccoli and sauerkraut mixture altogether.
Pork Ribs in Tomatillo Sauce: I’ve never cooked anything with tomatillos before, but
I’ve always been curious about them. I took the plunge recently and bought some
as they are in season, then picked this recipe to use.
I
wasn’t sorry. It was very good, and quite easy to make. As the recipe is from
Saveur magazine, known for its authentic international recipes, I’d like to
think I was making traditional Mexican comfort food.
Maple Cake: This easy recipe yielded a simple, yummy cake that was comforting and fun
to eat. It’s an ideal dessert for fall.
