Publisher's Synopsis
The winter holiday season is my favorite time to entertain at home. My kids come home, family comes to visit, and friends start sending cards and treats. It always calls for celebration. Over the years I've carefully curated our family traditions because they make us feel at home no matter where we may travel to over the holidays. Of course, many of our traditions revolve around the smells and flavors of the menu! And for us, this isn't a single-day event. My family requires holiday treats and snacks to be at the ready for at least a week at a time! But who wants to spend so much precious family time in the kitchen? Not me; I like to keep it simple. In this book you will find easy-to-prepare recipes for your favorite holiday comfort dishes and memories. There are tips for planning ahead, timing your menu, and for new ideas that will easily become traditions.
The food is undoubtedly a staple of your memorable holiday events. Whether you're looking for a new take on a classic dish to serve for family dinner, or for a treat to bring to your next holiday gathering, there are many appetizers, side dishes and delicious dessert recipes in this book to compliment your choice of protein.
It has been said, "If you really want to make a friend, go to someone's house and eat with him...the people who give you their food give you their heart." From my home and heart to yours; Happy Holidays!
