Sweet & Spicy Squash

Squash is one of my favorite vegetables, so I’ve been experimenting with it for years. This recipe makes for an easy and tasty side dish that’s a bit unexpected and one of my favorites. ~ Juli

This vegetable-based dish is inspired by Tom Brady and a recipe in his TB12 Method book. I’ve made some adjustments to it and my family really enjoys it. The key is making it with healthy ingredients that reduce inflammation compared to traditional lasagna with cheeses and tomato sauces. ~ Greg

Oma’s Cranberry Sweet Potato Bake

My mother hasn’t been well lately, so I have been spending a lot of time reminiscing about her wonderful life of cooking and entertaining. I have several of her recipe boxes with recipes written in her own handwriting which I will cherish forever. I don’t think I realized or appreciated what a great cook she was when I was growing up, but now that I reflect back, I realize she was a phenomenal cook and hostess. I so appreciate all she did for our family and friends. She considered color, taste, and combinations of foods when she planned a meal, especially when she was entertaining. The scents and sights were always amazing in Oma’s kitchen. — Nancy

It’s an easy and delicious side dish and gives me an opportunity to use one of my favorite Maine-made ingredients. — Charlene
