Makes 4 servings 

Baked Brie en Croûte with Crackers

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment or foil. Set the brie on the prepared pan and bake until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melty, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm with crackers and, if you have any on hand, honey for drizzling. 

Thick-Cut Roasted Turkey 

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Remove the lid from the turkey, cover the pan with foil, and bake until warmed through or the internal temperature reaches 165°F, 20 to 25 minutes. 

Mashed Potatoes with Herb Butter & Crispy Shallots

To fry the shallots: Slice the shallots. Line a plate with paper towels. Place the shallots in a saucepan, and pour in enough canola oil to cover. Set the pan over medium heat, and cook until the shallots are golden brown, stirring occasionally, 12 to 15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shallots to the plate, and sprinkle with salt while still warm. (Once cooled, the shallots can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.) Reserve the flavorful oil for another use.

To reheat the mashed potatoes in the oven: Preheat the oven to 325°F. Remove the lid from the container, and add a drizzle of milk or broth over the top of the mashed potatoes. Cover with foil and bake until warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes. 

To reheat the mashed potatoes on the stove: In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the potatoes and a splash of milk or broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through and bubbling around the edges, 5 minutes.

To serve: Dot the potatoes with the herb butter and shower with crispy shallots. Grind with pepper, and serve warm. 

Stuffing

Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large rectangular baking dish (about 9 by 13 inches), combine the bread cubes, stuffing mix, and 3 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil. Drizzle with 2 cups of the chicken broth, reserving the rest for another use. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. 

Roasted Seasonal Vegetable Medley & Salsa Verde

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Remove the lid from the container. Bake until warmed through, 10 to 15 minutes. Drizzle with the salsa verde and serve warm. 

Baby Kale Salad with Persimmon & Pomegranate

To assemble the salad: Cut the persimmons in half, remove the stems, and slice. In a large bowl, combine the baby kale and persimmons, drizzle with about ⅓ cup of the Meyer lemon vinaigrette, season with salt, and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the crumbled feta cheese and pomegranate seeds, grind with pepper, and serve. 

Turkey Gravy

In a small saucepan over medium heat, reheat the gravy, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 5 to 8 minutes.

Cranberry Chutney 

Let the cranberry chutney come to room temperature before serving. 

Pumpkin Pie & Vanilla Ice Cream

Let the pie come to room temperature before cutting into wedges. Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
