Cranberry Onion Pork Roast is a festive holiday recipe when you want something smaller than a whole ham. Some of Patti’s friends laugh at her because she actually liked canned cranberry sauce. But, she showed them that it’s great as a base for a sauce or glaze especially with some added garlic or made thinner with a little orange or cranberry juice. It’s not…
Chicken Stuffed Shells Primavera because the holidays are coming and you need something to do with your leftover turkey and veggies. We shared these with our neighbors, Eddie & Kevin, and they both loved them. They said they had all the goodies for a pot pie, but with pasta instead of crust.

Plus, long grain and wild rice with a few handfuls of…
