Here is a Thanksgiving/Christmas side dish I love - from memory as my cookbook fell apart and when I was in hospital - someone "cleaned" my kitchen and now I can't find the pages!

Cranberry Mousse

1 can regular jellied cranberry sauce
1 large or 2 small boxes Jello - cherry/blk cherry, raspberry or blk raspberry flavor
1 16 oz container sour creme

mold or bowl - I have an old tupperware that has a removeable top that makes removal easy

Prepare the jello with only 1/2 the water and wait for it to become near firm, still squishy....

With a hand potato masher, blend the cranberry sauce and sour cream, then add the jello and blend that in. Put in the mold and chill.

Easy Hollandaise Sauce

Melt butter slowly, blend in egg yolks and lemon juice....stir until thick and creamy

If it separates, add a teaspoon of very hot water and blend over low heat

You will need:

Cajun seasoning
1 lb. of skinless boneless chicken breasts
650ml (approx.) jar of salsa (mild, med. or hot - your pref.)
1/2-3/4 cup of heavy cream (30% fresh whipping cream - not "whipped cream") - at room temperature
Enough cooking oil (choice), I use Olive oil, to seer chicken
Hot sauce, cajun, chipolte (I use)

AND...a "cast iron" pot or skillet

Coat chicken in cajun seasoning and press in (be generous).
Heat oil and cast iron pan
Add chicken, seer on both sides till cooked through and coating is black-ish - remove, set aside to cool
in seperate pot or wok, heat jar of salsa, cook till reduces slightly
add in a few shots of hot sauce (optional)
add 1/2 to 3/4 cup of heavy cream (to your preference)
slice chicken into strips or bites and add to the sauce
simmer all for additional 15-20 mins or until sauce is thickened a bit.

Serve on your favourite pasta (I like penne for this), with a little cracked pepper -(note: you can use a little parmesen cheese, but I don't think you will need)

No hard and fast rule, you can embelish this by adding more peppers and onions (saute first), diced jalapeno's (yum!), more or less cream...use homemade salsa...

Also note: leftovers (if any Ha Ha!), keep sauce and pasta separate when storing as it seems to loose some of it's flavour when soaks into pasta.

Serve w/fresh bread and butter (optional)...OR....make salsa bread...

Slice baguette in 3/4" rounds, top w/salsa and some extra old chedder...bake on 350 for approx. 10 mins.

I make this recipe every time I go to a party. By the end of the night, I usually have about 10 people asking me for the recipe! It is ALWAYS a hit.

An unlikely list of ingredients, but it is just amazing...and so easy to make! Make sure you don't judge by tasting before it sits for 4 hours...the taste TOTALLY changes (too oniony at first)!

Ingredients:
· 1/3 cup minced onion (1 small onion)
· 1 small can of tiny deveined shrimp, drained
· 8 oz shredded white sharp cheddar cheese
· 1 cup mayonnaise
· Worcestershire sauce to taste (approx. 1 ½ teaspoons)
· 1 box Sociables or other cracker

Mix shrimp, mayonnaise, onion and cheese until well blended. Add Worcestershire sauce to taste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to blend flavors.

Serve with crackers.

has anyone ever put cream cheese in mashed potatoes? I thought someone told me to put cream cheese in there and I have another friend telling my it might be sour cream??

I have a call into my cooking instructor but have not heard back yet, and I am only making ONE more trip to the store!

Thank You!!

I knew she said to put cream cheese in there but I still have not heard back from her to make sure. My husband likes cheese but hates cooked cheese in any way. So can you taste the cheese in there?
