STARTER: Eggs Stuffed with Avocado
|
|
|
Instead of the classic deviled egg filling (which uses mayo or mustard), mashed avocado steps in to add healthy fats, a subtle buttery flavor, and a lovely green hue.

SOUP: Italian Wedding Soup
|
|
|
Italian Wedding Soup traces its origins to Italy, where it was called "Minestra Maritata," meaning "married soup." The name refers to the blending of ingredients like meat and leafy greens, a tradition dating back to ancient Roman times when similar soups were made with whatever was on hand.

SALAD: Vinaigrette
|
|
|
There’s something wonderfully grounding about a bowl of vinaigrette — the kind of salad that feels like it’s been passed from one generation’s table to the next. Earthy beets, tender potatoes, and sweet carrots come together with bright pickles and sauerkraut, creating that unmistakable balance of comfort and sparkle. It’s simple, honest, and quietly beautiful, the sort of dish you make when you want color in winter and a little nostalgia in every bite.

MAIN COURSE: Potato-Chicken Casserole
|
|
|
This recipe can be varied: use other ground meats, finely chopped ham, or any other meat. I think it's especially good for using up leftovers from Thanksgiving. You can also grate zucchini or pumpkin, or both, along with the potatoes.
