Christmas Tortellini Soup: Who doesn’t love tortellini, with spinach and that creamy broth. Where’s my nap?

Traditional Holiday Stuffing: If you don’t have a family recipe, this one here will do the trick.

Pomegranate Glazed Green Beans: You know this just sounds good.

Cranberry Salad: This is similar to the recipe passed down over six generations in my family.
