Cranberry Brussels Sprouts
1 pound of fresh Brussels spouts
1 pound of bacon
1- cup of dried cranberries
2 Tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
-Cut sprouts in fours (smaller bites make it easier to go down:)
-cut bacon in half inch pieces and crisp up in a skillet ( save the grease)
-put cut up sprouts on a baking sheet and and drizzle with bacon grease...the apple cider vinegar and salt/pepper
-Toss and then bake at 4:25 until desired crispness
Put in a serving dish and add the bacon and dried cranberries
**add some roasted walnuts for more crunch
Dipping sauce for Brussels sprouts
2-cups of real cranberries in a saucepan...add sugar to over and cook down....if too bitter...add more sugar.....
So good and so great for Thanksgiving
Instant Mashed Potato
**success every time!**
Needed:
Idaho instant potatoes(by far the best brand)
4 blocks of cream cheese
2 sticks of butter(1 more just in case:)
1/2 gallon of whole milk
In a sauce pan on high....
Warm while whisking....cream cheese/butter and milk (don’t walk away)
At even the hint of a boil ....turn off burner
And add potato flakes ....whisk or get out your mixer...either one works.....add more flakes(slowly:) if too runny and add more butter or whole milk if too thick ......
Add butter to the top and serve out of a double broiler.....no one likes cold potatoes :)
So so easy and everyone will be fooled....I️ have made believers out of our whole congregation at Lee Park!
Happy Thanksgiving!
