Unless you have a from scratch recipe, this one requires a stop to the market for some popping fresh biscuits. It’s a deviation from all local ingredients, but for me, this is a limited case where convenience wins. If you’d rather skip the biscuits, the gravy stands up over hash or eggs. The recipe is simple, and the gravy is hearty!
This recipe from Southern Living provides a tasty and unique use for apples and sweet potatoes. There are several liberties that can be taken with the ingredients (I used half of the called for refrigerated pie crust, none of the orange juice and much less of the sugar, for example). A dollop of freshly whipped cream really brings this one home!
A great comfort food to get you through the winter doldrums (or a depressing Superbowl). This is a very flexible recipe. Turnips, small diced sweet potatoes, and carrots would also work as your primary veggies. Substitute the beef for ground pork, chicken, goat (chorizo!), turkey or tofu (though I’d recommend adding the latter about 30 minutes from the end of cook time). As always, make it your own!
