  • Making time for Thanksgiving

    Thanksgiving is two weeks away, but that doesn’t mean you can’t start cooking the feast today.

  • Sweetheart Pudding

    This is my great-grandmother's recipe from the Isle of Lewis, Scotland. A family favorite, the ingredients are most likely in your kitchen making it easy to whip up on short notice.

  • Peggy's Cape Breton Quick Rolls

    Peggy's Cape Breton Quick Rolls

    Make your favorite biscuit dough from scratch or use the freezer case tin variety found at the local store. Roll out round. Cut into 8 pie slice shapes. Add any amount of raisins to your liking.

  • Thanksgiving recipes: From your home to ours

    We asked readers to send us their favorite Thanksgiving recipes and we were rewarded with more than 50 recipes that spanned everything from no-dairy pumpkin pie to lime Jell-O salad to wild rice with chanterelles and stuffed acorn squash. We don’t have enough space to print all recipes here, so we selected a dozen to feature. Of those, we declared five to be the newsroom favorites for this year’s reader- contributed Thanksgiving recipe section. We tested those five recipes in a home kitchen and found that the recipes will be sure winners for your Thanksgiving table. The authors of those recipes will receive cookbooks for their recipes.
