COOKING CORNER

By Janet Nummi

For those times (hello, Hurricanes Helene and Milton), you realize you don’t feel like making your usual Thanksgiving dozen, well, have I found a new recipe for you.

Picture this: a casserole. But not just any casserole. No, this is a one-pan tribute to Thanksgiving. Turkey (or chicken, or no meat at all if you’re feeling rebellious), herbed sourdough stuffing, sweet potatoes, green beans, and dried cranberries, all hanging out together like a dysfunctional holiday family. It bakes up golden and cozy, while you make a quick batch of gravy – mushroom, or whatever kind suits your gravy personality. As we all know from years and years of piling our plates high on Thanksgiving, the brilliance of these traditional dishes is that their flavors all pair perfectly together already. So, you know, just think of this casserole as that colorful plate to gobble, deliciously overlapping and ready to go!

In about half the time it would take to wrestle a full Thanksgiving meal into submission, you’ve got yourself a dish that’s festive, hearty, and so satisfying that you might just make it your new favorite holiday tradition. No judgment.
