There is no more romantic dish than a soufflé. Rising like magic in the oven, light and airy with a custardy center, it's a sensuous offering that begs to be shared.
Confession: Up until last week, I didn't know the difference between sweet potatoes and yams.
Thanks- giving came early in our house last week, thanks to the rotisserie at my neighborhood Raley's supermarket. I was feeling the love for a little holiday spread after seeing the store's newspaper ad for fully cooked rotisserie turkey breasts. I had a box of Stove Top stuffing in the cupboard and my favorite frozen mashed potatoes in the freezer. I added a can of turkey gravy and a spoonful of the cranberry relish from the Raley's deli and -- voila! -- Thanksgiving was born. The turkey breast was hot, moist and delicious. Best of all, I didn't have to cook it! The $8.99 turkey breast fed the three of us, with plenty left over.
