Tamales inspired by Thanksgiving are flavored with squash and stuffed with a tart turkey cranberry filling.

These chicken wings are inspired by the Persian chicken stew fesenjoon.  It is flavored with pomegranate and walnut.

All the ingredients in this dip are first thrown on the grill to give it a nice smokey flavor.

This was one of those times where you open your fridge and try and put together a meal with lots of ingredients leftover from other recipes. I had tons of different herbs, half a cabbage, some sharp cheese, olives, and pizza dough. Normally when I make a clean-out-the-fridge meal, I don’t take pictures, but this ‘zone came out fantastic, and much different than any calzone I have ever had, so I decided you guys might be interested. It was almost more of an intensely flavored empanada filling in a pizza crust.

Normally at dinnertime I don’t like eggs to be the main thing that I am eating. I love them in my dinner, just not as the focal point. For example, I wouldn’t want to eat just eggs and bacon, or an omelet for dinner, but toss a fried egg on top of a burger, or crack a few eggs into a stir fry, and i’m all over it! This meal however, changed my whole perspective on eggs for dinner. I wasn’t super excited for it, because of my weird eggs-for-dinner hang up, but it was one of the most satisfying dinners I have had in a long time.

This is NOT the soup that many Persian people serve at their wedding. It\’s actually a riff on Italian wedding soup, but instead with Persian flavors.
