Company Steak with Bearnaise Butter
"This Bearnaise butter will be a very welcome addition to my steaks from now on. I love the tarragon and shallot flavor combination, and when it slowly melts over a steak it is wonderful!"

Simple Pineapple Sauce for Ham
"I made this sauce for supper tonight and it was delicious with our baked ham. I used my wand blender to emulsify the sauce leaving a few chunky pieces for texture. Very easy to make and tastes great!"
-LazyDolly
Mexican Tamales
These little gifts—soft masa harina shaped around a spicy pork in red salsa—are enclosed in a wrapping paper made of corn husks. What better way to celebrate than with this traditional Christmas meal?!
Instant Pot Prime Rib
"This is an excellent recipe and does have great flavors. We always sear the roast before pressure cooking, as we find this adds extra flavor to the gravy and also makes the juices much darker. An old cast iron Dutch oven works great for the sear in a few ounces of olive oil and a dollop of salted butter."
-John D.
Pasteis de Nata (Portuguese Egg Tarts)
These bite-sized Christmastime treats are filled with sweet custard that gets lightly burnt when baked.
Crispy, flaky pastry topped with melted garlicky cheese and roasted wild mushrooms. Serve this as the main event or slice it small to make it an appetizer.
Udny Arms Sticky Toffee Pudding
"Awesome! Mine was also done after 30 minutes and it was very moist. I first had this dessert in Ireland and fell in love with it. I always thought it was hard to make but this couldn't have been easier, and I had most everything on hand."
-cruzzo
Honey-Roasted Pork Loin
"I was looking for a new way to cook pork loin — this is it! We loved it. I added garlic and used rosemary instead of thyme."
-LK Devildog

"The feta adds a nice touch to these delicious bites of mushrooms. I love that it's filled with veggies; it makes a great side dish!"

Buridda (Ligurian Fish Stew)
"This buridda tasted just like the one my grandmother made! If I closed my eyes, I would be back in Italy in her kitchen!"
-KmartKlutz
Rolled Flank Steak
"Loved this recipe so much! It was very flavorful. I do recommend seasoning the steak with a bit of salt and pepper before filling and rolling. Other than that, it's a winner!"
-Jonathan Melendez
"These mushrooms tasted divine. The pairing with green onions is a wonderful flavor sensation. The sauce was extra yummy and the butter, white wine and Worcestershire sauce go nicely together. Served with steaks and baked potatoes. A feast fit for a king."

Medium Rare Prime Rib Roast
"Restaurant quality results!"
-Steve K.
Yorkshire Pudding
"I always struggle trying to find a good Yorkshire pudding recipe, like my mum made. Look no further; this one is perfect every time. Just make sure the oil is hot enough, and they're pretty much dummy-proof."
-Jordan D.
Traditional Coq au Vin
"I loved that this recipe uses boneless skinless chicken thighs. I felt like they were super tender and the sauce tasted amazing. I highly recommend."
-Jonathan Melendez
"This was really, really tasty! Cheesy, creamy and delish, just like promised. Yum! I had this as my main meal and it was very satisfying even though I cut the cheese by half, as that's all I had on hand. The crumb topping was so good, I think I'll use it on other gratins as well from now on."
-Lalaloula
Horseradish Roast Beef Spirals
"I love things I can do ahead; I made these for a dinner party the day before the event. One more tablespoon of horseradish (YES, be sure to drain it!) would have been more to our taste. There weren't any left on the plate; our daughter and son-in-law thought they were wonderful. Be sure to roll them tightly."
-Linda
Award-Winning Butter Tarts
"Butter tarts are a Canadian tradition. Way back in the 1970s, a national contest here in Canada concluded that these butter tarts, originating from Wilkie's Bakery in Orillia, Ontario, were the best. I certainly think so and it's the only recipe I use."
-Lennie

"According to my husband this is the best salad he has ever eaten and I would have to agree. We loved the crunch that the sunflower seeds brought to the mix and the sweetness of the apple. It really is fabulous!"
-INVICTUS
Hungarian Mushroom Soup
"A very easy soup to make, but oh so good. I live in Oregon and pick my own wild fresh mushrooms. I do add at least double the amount of mushrooms just because that is how I roll. Store-bought mushrooms are great. Please use caution if you choose to pick your own."
-Anonymous
Artichoke Spinach Lasagna
"My aunt is a vegetarian and made this opposite meat lasagna over the holidays. The meat lasagna was hardly touched because everyone was devouring this dish instead. It is way good and definitely is better with fresh rosemary."
-mirespada
Instant Pot Figgy Pudding
"The Instant Pot is perfect for old-time steamed English puddings. There were leftovers (we also had a trifle) and I enjoyed slices to top off my supper for a few days afterwards. It tasted as good after being refrigerated as it did on Christmas Day."
-UCALady
Linguine with Clam Sauce

-Jenni M.
Fannie Farmer's Scalloped Potatoes

-Grace7
Hummus-Filled Cucumber Logs
"These were great! I made it as directed, but added some roasted red pepper to the hummus which made the color really pop."

-anniesnomsblog
Christmas Stollen
"This is a wonderful recipe! Enjoyable to make, not really all that difficult and gives fantastic results. The dough was so easy to work with, smelled heavenly while cooking and produced a beautiful (and huge!) loaf of delicious bread."
-loof751
Christmas Pudding
"Christmas pudding is definitely a divider of opinions. We usually have a small one every year and theres only a few people in my family who properly love it. I like to have a small piece which, as it's packed with dried fruit, is definitely enough for me! The pudding keeps incredibly well so you can freeze leftovers, if needed."
-Izy Hossack
Ham in Coca Cola
"Wonderful way to make ham! I used a smoked pork shoulder and simmered it away for the afternoon in the cola."
CarolAnne in Canada
Easy Cornish Game Hens
"This recipe is very easy and delicious! I made it even easier by not cutting the hens in half, and I cooked two hens — one for now and one for later."
-sloe cooker
"This came out beautifully medium rare, and the Bearnaise sauce is the best I've ever had. I substituted cremini mushrooms for the chanterelles. We can't wait to serve this to company!"
-Just Call Me Martha
Molasses-Glazed Ham Steak
"This is a quick, tangy-sweet glaze. However, it looks (and tastes) like something that took a while!"
-Deb Wolf
"I made this for Christmas dinner and it was devoured and loved by all. The beef was melt-in-your-mouth tender and I could have eaten a bowl of the sauce all by itself. This one is a keeper!"
-Brenda Morris
Braised Lamb Shanks

-bad kitty 1116

-Derf
Jamie Olivers Pasta Carbonara
"This was very authentic, and I loved the addition of peas to the recipe. They brought a fresh burst of flavor to this. It was perfect."
-French Tart
Reveillon Tourtiere (French Canadian Meat Pie)
"This is oh-so-good and has such a wonderful aroma. I couldn't find savory, so I substituted thyme. I'm looking forward to having leftovers tonight as it made plenty."
-BJ from BC
Kittencal's Rapid-Roast Whole Chicken
"This is fantastic! I made it for my first Christmas dinner at my house and it was SO GOOD. I love the bit of kick from the cayenne pepper."

-longearslove
Lamb Chops
"This was delicious. I am a lamb chop fanatic, and I usually just grill or broil them because I love the lamb flavor, but this actually helped accentuate the taste. I combined the rosemary with the breadcrumbs."
