Besides being Taco Tuesday, it's also Double-Post Tuesday. Since Thursday is Thanksgiving here in the U.S., today's double post deals with Thanksgiving recipes. Check out the Cranberry Streusel Sweet Potatoes, the Gingerbread Loaf with Cream Cheese Frosting, and the rest of today's yumminess. Enjoy!

Note: Since Thursday is Thanksgiving, I'll be taking the day off. But I will post on Friday.

CLASSIC CRANBERRY SAUCE

This is from Julia Moskin in The New York Times cooking e-newsletter. Julia wrote, “Nothing beats the puckery-sweet jolt of cranberry sauce. It's a sharp knife that cuts through all the starchy food on the menu. This recipe is for the traditionalists.” (If I might add, “YUM!!!”)

Time: 15 minutes, plus chilling; Yield: 2 cups

This was featured in “Essential Thanksgiving” (which I highly recommend looking at; go ahead, I’ll wait…), and can be viewed online at https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1015427-classic-cranberry-sauce.

Note: I was shopping yesterday for last minute items for Thanksgiving dinner, and bought a can of jellied cranberry sauce. Yes, I’ll set that out for anyone who wants it (I already have an idea who’ll dig in), but I also intend to make this. Absolutely wonderful!!!

Ingredients

4 cups whole cranberries

6 tablespoons sugar

Pinch of salt

2 cups water

1/4 cup orange juice or Grand Marnier (optional)

2/3 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans (optional)

Preparation

In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries, 2 cups water, the sugar and salt. Let the sauce boil until it thickens; the water will evaporate and the pectin in the cranberries will be activated as it cooks. Let it boil for at least 10 minutes, and up to 25 minutes. Remove from heat.

Stir in juice or liqueur, if using, then cover sauce well and chill. Sauce can be made up to this point 1 week in advance and kept refrigerated. A few hours before serving, stir in the pecans, if using.

GINGERBREAD LOAF WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

This is from Anita Schecter on The Spruce Eats. Anita wrote, “The aroma of gingerbread baking is probably one of the most memorable scents of the Christmas holiday. The combination of spices is hard to mistake and we automatically envision decorated cookies or houses. If making gingerbread from scratch seems too complicated, you're not relegated to those elaborately constructed houses—just skip the architectural project and bake up a rich, moist, and fragrant loaf cake instead.

“Gingerbread is also wonderfully customizable. Love the earthy sweetness of molasses? Use more of that and less of the granulated sugar. Want just a hint of molasses? Feel free to reduce it a bit. This recipe strives for a good balance between the two, but sample the batter and decide for yourself.

“As for the spices, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove are common, but you can alter the proportions to suit your taste. This recipe leaves out the clove for a milder taste. Finally, the sweet tangy notes of cream cheese frosting adds a decadent touch to this simple cake, but a plain icing or powdered sugar will work fine if you'd like to lighten it up.

“This loaf is lovely and rich enough to serve as dessert, but we won't judge if you decide it makes a great breakfast.”

Prep Time: 20 minutes; Cook Time: 45 minutes; Total Time: 65 minutes; Yield: 8 servings

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons ground ginger

1 teaspoon vanilla

Pinch of salt

3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Gather the ingredients and preheat the oven to 350 F.

Add the butter and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer (you can also use a hand mixer) and beat for a few minutes until the sugar has been completely incorporated.

Add the eggs one at a time and continue beating.

Add the molasses and vanilla extract and beat to incorporate.

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.

Alternate beating in the buttermilk and the flour mixture until fully incorporated, but do not over mix.

Butter and flour a loaf pan and pour in the batter.

Bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Let rest before removing from the loaf pan.

Add the softened cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and salt to a bowl and beat together until smooth.

Stir in the powdered sugar until fully incorporated and the frosting is smooth and spreadable.

When the loaf cake has cooled, top with the cream cheese frosting.

Serve and enjoy!

CRANBERRY STREUSEL SWEET POTATOES

This is from that infamous long-since-forgotten emailing list, and begins, “Dotted with crimson cranberries, the streusel topping adds a crunchy touch to mashed sweet potatoes. All the sweetness comes from either the potatoes or cranberries, because no sugar is added.”

BEST PECAN PIE

My step-dad loved pecan pies, so I'm sure he would've loved this one. It's from Linda Larsen, a contributor at The Spruce Eats. She wrote, "This recipe makes a perfect pecan pie. By that, we mean a balanced sweet flavor, lots of toasted pecans, and the pie slices beautifully into wedges, looking just like pictures of pecan pie in a cookbook. Using a 9-inch pie shell, prepare to bake the crust and construct the sweet and delicious filling that makes these pies so popular and well loved. The method to make the pecan pie filling for this recipe is a bit unusual and offbeat, but it's not difficult to make.

"Pecan pies are traditionally enjoyed on the holidays or why not whip one up for a special occasion. Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an irresistible dessert."

Prep Time: 25 minutes; Cook Time: 55 minutes; Total Time: 80 minutes; Servings: 6 to 8 servings

To view this online, go to https://www.thespruceeats.com/best-pecan-pie-483200.

Ingredients

1 (9-inch) pie shell

1/3 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar (packed)

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

3 eggs

1/2 cup light corn syrup

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 1/2 cups pecans (coarsely chopped)

Garnish: 1 cup large pecan halves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 F. Place the unbaked pie crust in the freezer until ready to bake. Then line pie crust with aluminum foil and pie weights or dried beans. Bake pie shell until set, about 5 to 6 minutes.

Remove the foil and weights and bake 2 to 3 minutes longer until crust is just beginning to brown on the edges.

As soon as the pie shell comes out of the oven, decrease the oven temperature to 300 F.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat; mix in sugars and salt with a wire whisk until combined. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then beat in corn syrup and vanilla.

Place the saucepan over very low heat. Cook and stir constantly with a wire whisk until the mixture is very warm and thickened, about 6 to 7 minutes. You have to stir constantly with a whisk so the mixture cooks evenly and the eggs don't scramble on the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and strain into a large bowl using a medium-mesh strainer. (This is important to remove any cooked egg.) Then, stir in the chopped pecans.

Pour the hot pecan mixture into the hot pie crust. Place large pecan halves on top of the filling in a decorative pattern.

Bake the pie until the center feels set but soft when touched with your finger, and moves slightly when the pie is gently jiggled, about 40 to 55 minutes. You may need to cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent over-browning or cover the top of the pie with foil so it doesn't get too brown.

Transfer pie to a wire rack and let cool completely for at least 5 hours. It's best eaten within 12 to 14 hours.

MAPLE PECAN SWEET POTATO SCONES

This comes from United HealthCare, and begins, "Tender and fluffy, these spiced scones are full of veggies, whole grains and maple syrup and are best served warm. Even better? They’re easy enough to whip up for brunch or afternoon coffee."

Yields:12

You can view this online by clicking here.

Ingredients:

Scones

2 3/4 cups whole-wheat pastry flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ginger

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 stick cold butter, diced

2/3 cup sweet potato, cooked and mashed

1/3 cup real maple syrup

2 eggs

Glaze

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon real maple syrup

2–3 teaspoons milk

1/4 cup pecans, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, ginger and nutmeg. Cut in the butter with two knives or a pastry blender until crumbly. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sweet potato, maple syrup and eggs until blended.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and combine until a soft dough forms. Divide the dough in half and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat each half into a 6-inch circle about 1 inch thick. Transfer the two circles to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a knife, cut each circle into 6 wedges, gently separating the wedges with the knife until they are about 1/4 inch apart.

Bake the scones for 16–18 minutes or until golden. Whisk together the glaze ingredients and drizzle over the warm scones. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon cayenne or to your taste

cotija cheese crumbled, for topping

Roasted Cranberry Pomegranate Salsa

12 ounces fresh cranberries

1/4 cup brown sugar

To make the salsa: Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.

Place the cranberries, brown sugar, chipotle chili, lime zest + juice, garlic, jalapeño and a pinch of salt and pepper. Use your hands to toss everything together until the cranberries are evenly coated. Place in the oven and roast until the cranberries burst and release their juices, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and and let cool 10 minutes. Then add the pomegranate arils and toss well. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if desired. Set aside and keep at room temperature.

Cover the skillet and let cook until the sweet potatoes are fork tender, but not mushy, stirring once or twice for about 15 minutes. Once the sweet potatoes are fork tender, add the garlic and saute 30 seconds. Then crank up the heat to medium-high (adding more oil if needed) and add the quinoa. Let the quinoa get crispy and cook for about 5 minutes. Add 3/4 cup water, tomatoes (if using), the chili powder, chipotle chilies, adobo sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, brown sugar and cayenne, stir to thoroughly combine and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook for 5-10 minutes or until the water has completely evaporated. Remove from the heat and stir in the black beans, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and the lime juice.

To assemble the tacos place some of the quinoa in a tortilla or shell. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, avocado, a large dollop the the roasted cranberry salsa, crumbled catija cheese and fresh chopped cilantro. Take in their beauty and then EAT!

VEGETARIAN MUSHROOM TACOS

This was on the Runner’s World website (posted September 27, 2012), and begins, “Get the flavors of Tacos al Pastor, minus the meat...

“Back when I first became a vegetarian, I thought about meat all the time. I missed it. So I pulled the classic rookie-vegetarian move of trying to recapture the magic of my favorite meals through a steady intake of Chik Nuggets, Tofu Pups, and other dubious miracles of modern culinary science. Imitation meat products (well, and 'newly minted vegetarian smugness') were the staples of my new diet—a lifestyle I later learned goes by the glamorous name of 'junk-food vegetarianism.' Ah, the folly of herbivorous youth.

“Now, after more than 10 years off the meat wagon, I don’t fantasize about meat—or even unhealthy tofu substitutes—at all. I’ve found that some of the 'meatier' vegetarian meals can be made almost entirely from plants, eliminating the need for overly processed soy.

“That’s why I love these mushroom tacos. They have the rich flavor of a slow-cooked pork taco and a satisfying meaty texture. But unlike with pork, mushrooms start out tender and only take about 10 minutes or so on the stove. Plus mushrooms are cholesterol-free, fat-free, full of vitamins, and are rumored to have mystical cancer-fighting properties. It's hard to go wrong when you throw “cancer-fighting” into the mix.

“My partner invented this recipe based on the seasonings that go into Tacos al Pastor. Minus the pineapple and coke, but if you want to experiment with those too, knock yourself out. It's a fast and filling recipe that’s super easy to make for a large crowd.”

WHITE BEAN AND POTATO TACOS (GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN)

A while back, I stumbled across Oh My Veggies. They have all sorts of yummy veggie recipes, including a bunch of taco links.

This taco recipe, which was among the taco links on Oh My Veggies, is from Beard & Bonnet. Beard & Bonnet’s Meg van der Kruik is “the writer, mother, photographer, designer, cook and creative spirit behind Beard & Bonnet.”

This can be viewed online at http://beardandbonnet.com/white-bean-and-potato-tacos-gluten-free-and-vegan/.

Serves 4; Prep Time: 20 min

Ingredients

2 cups cooked white beans, I used Navy beans, or 1 can of cannelini beans, washed and drained

4-5 small potatoes, unpeeled, scrubbed, and cut into tiny cubes (or 1 large russet potato)

1/2 cup cilantro, minced

Juice and zest of 1 lime

Olive oil for frying

salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste

To assemble

6-8 white corn tortillas, blistered on both sides in a cast iron skillet

pickled jalapenos & radishes

cherry tomatoes, halved; I used Sungold cherry tomatoes from my CSA

lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Pour about 2 tablespoons of olive oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and a large pinch of salt, toss to coat and cover with a tight fitting lid. The potatoes will take about 5-8 minutes to cook through. Be sure to periodically lift the lid, scrape the pan, and toss the potatoes to ensure that all sides are crisp and golden.

While the potatoes are cooking toss the precooked, warmed, white beans with the chopped cilantro, lime zest, and juice. Mix well to combine and set aside.

When the potatoes are finished cooking set up an assembly line at your table with the tortillas, potatoes, white beans, and toppings. Allow your family to each build there own to suit their tastes.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO SOFT TACOS

I originally found this at Oh My Veggies. The site has a mess of taco recipes from different places, which can be found here.

Yield: serves 2-4

From Keepin’ It Kind. View this online at http://keepinitkind.com/roasted-portobello-soft-tacos/. Serves 2 – 4.

Ingredients

3 portobello mushrooms, stems removed and chopped

2 tablespoon Bragg Liquid Aminos

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon liquid smoke

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram

1/2 teaspoon dried onion granules

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1 cup corn kernels (I used an organic frozen variety)

1/2 onion, diced

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

2-3 large leaves of collard greens, stems removed and roughly chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon ancho chile pepper

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup cilantro

1/2 avocado, diced

6 corn tortillas (or small flour torillas)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the Portobello mushrooms, bottoms up, on the sheet.

In a small bowl, mix together the Bragg Liquid Aminos, balsamic vinegar, liquid smoke, thyme and marjoram. Drizzle over the mushrooms. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes (depending on how firm you want them). Remove and let cool until they are cool enough to handle.

While the mushrooms are in the oven, you can cook the veggies. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for one more minute. Add the bell peppers, corn, mushroom stems, cumin, smoked paprika, and ancho chile pepper, and mix to combine. Saute until bell peppers start to get a little soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste, then add the collard greens. Saute until the collards just start to wilt (you don’t want them to get completely wilted). Toss in the cilantro, mix to combine and remove from heat.

Once the mushrooms are cool enough to handle, slice them, on a diagonal, into wide strips.

Take a clean kitchen towel and lightly wet it. Wrap the corn tortillas up in the damp kitchen towel and place the kitchen towel, with corn tortillas wrapped inside, on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5-6 minutes.

Divide the veggie mixture amongst the 6 tortillas. Top the veggies with 2-3 slices of mushroom. Sprinkle the avocado chunks on top of each pile. You can also top with salsa and/or tofu sour cream.

Serve immediately and Enjoy!
