1 pound potatoes
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 (4.375 ounce) cans sardines, drained
½ pound cherry tomatoes, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 tablespoons bread crumbs

Directions

Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Cover with cold water and allow to sit until cool, draining and replacing the cold water as needed. Peel and slice the potatoes thinly.

Grease a casserole dish with the olive oil. Line the casserole dish with an even layer of potato slices; top with a layer of sardine fillets. Scatter the diced tomatoes over the sardines. Sprinkle the garlic, basil, and bread crumbs over the tomatoes.
Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes.

Christmas Plum Pudding

This is a fairly basic British Christmas plum pudding recipe but unlike other recipes it can actually have plums in it. Unfortunately the ingredient list is so long, it isn't easy to make it in less than industrial quantities! You can substitute a mixture of fresh and dried apricots, peaches, etc. for the plums and milk for the ale if you wish. Serve with brandy or rum butter.

Banana Crumb Muffins

The best banana muffin recipes have a sweet crumb topping which is what makes these banana muffins stand apart from the ordinary. They're scrumptious!

Soft Homemade Pretzels

Fun to make.

Norwegian Potato Flatbread (Lefse)

This is my take on Norwegian flatbread. Without really knowing what I was doing, these came out delightfully tender, supple, almost fabric-like in texture, and tasting deliciously like something between a crepe and a potato pancake. They're traditionally served with butter and a sprinkle of sugar, but I also enjoy them with some smoked salmon, sour cream, and fresh dill. My other favorite topping combo is butter and some kind of berry jam and sour cream.

Chef John's Chicken Lazone

Creamy, Cajun-spiced Chicken Lazone is incredibly delicious, and seems fancy, but needs almost no prep at all. Adapted from the famous New Orleans dish by Chef Lazone Randolph of Brennan's, it may be one of the easiest chicken dishes we've ever posted.
