roasted acorn squash with herbed apple couscous

This dish is amazing on it’s own, as a starter or as a side! I can easily picture this on my guests Thanksgiving plates before the turkey, mashed potatoes & gravy make their debut.

walnut, parsley, & pecorino stuffed mushrooms

I love these stuffed mushrooms so much. If you aren’t careful, you’ll suddenly realize you’ve eaten at least 8 of them and didn’t save any for your guests! Whoops. These are filled and baked with a medley of garlic, finely chopped walnuts, fresh parsley and nutty pecorino.

Veggies & Sides

Sides are the maker or breaker of a plated dinner, agree? I mean, they are really just as important as the main dish, and even sometimes can BE the main dish. You can’t go wrong with these options.
