'Our local peat bogs are known around the world for their beautiful blueberries,' reports Anne Krueger from Richmond, British Columbia. 'I can prepare this dessert quick as a wink. It's always a crowd-pleaser at church suppers.'
A simple baked ziti strikes it rich with layers of sour cream, and three kinds of Italian cheese. Ready-made spaghetti sauce reduces the prep time, and ground meat is optional.
As much as my family loves Thanksgiving, they look forward to this cream soup using leftover turkey even more. It makes a big batch that we can enjoy for days. --Valorie Walker, Bradley, South Carolina
Blackberry chefs top this pudding with sabayon featuring vanilla-infused whiskey. At the Farm, the chefs flavor a 1.5-liter bottle of Jack Daniel's whiskey for three weeks. Our adaptation cuts the infusion time back to four days; you can let the mixture stand for even less time, though the vanilla flavor will be milder.
Chopped broccoli, crumbly bacon and lots of grated cheese, and red onion too are doused with a lovely red wine vinegar and mayonnaise dressing, and chilled.
My husband and I fondly refer to this as 'Cheater Pot Pie.' This is similar to a standard pot pie, but prepares much quicker. Use whole or two percent milk.
