Egg Halwa

A delicious dessert for cold winter nights. You can add vanilla if you feel it tastes too eggy. It's a little heavy, so even a small portion is enough to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Mango Salsa

This mango salsa recipe is easy to make with ripe mangos, bell pepper, and lime juice. Jalapeños add some heat. It's so refreshing and tasty on fish tacos or with chips for dipping.

Parmesan Espresso Martini Steak

This Parmesan espresso martini steak, rubbed with coffee and served with salty fricos and lightly dressed watercress, is inspired by the Parmesan-topped espresso martini trend that was everywhere last year.

Venison Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker

A friend who hunts gave me a whole venison tenderloin. I wanted to make something that I could bring along and reheat so I put in in the slow cooker with ingredients I had handy, and it turned out great.

Chef John's Roast Christmas Goose

I used half the wings to make a basic reduction sauce and the subtle smokiness worked wonderfully with the red wine, balsamic vinegar, and blackberry notes. The sauce is certainly optional, as this could be served plain with just some cranberry sauce on the side. I hope you're able to give this very easy-to-prepare, gorgeous roast goose a try.

Apricot-Glazed Pork Chops

This is a great recipe given to me by a close friend who never has enough time to cook for her family. It's quick and easy to prepare and cook, allowing you to have a yummy dinner on the table in no time. The sauce goes very well with a side of rice, too. Enjoy!
