Recipe Name : Cabernet and Portabello Sauce (goes great with roasts or turkey)
About Recipe : My Own Concoction
Ingredients:1/2-3/4 bottle of a GOOD cabernet sauvingnon (you could use any good dark red wine)

3 cloves of garlic, finely minced

1 minced shallot (or if you can't find a shallot, like heykeith/Ben, get green onions)

3 large portabello mushroom caps, diced

1/4 cup FRESH cranberries (dried cranberries will do[use 1/2 less]--soak them in a few tbsp of the cabernet to reconstitute)

3 tbsp unsalted butter

1-3 tbsp thyme

1-3 tbsp rosemary

1-3 tbsp sage

1/8 tsp cinnamon

(I always try to use fresh herbs, but when i can't, I adjust with ground herbs, and i usually do it to my tastes, you can always err on the side of caution and go with a little bit and work your way up)

** if using for a roast or turkey--use a few tbsp of the drippings as well**
Method:1. Place the butter into sautee pan until melted (medium high, add garlic, shallots/green onions until translucent/caramelized

2. Add cranberries next, sautee until soft

3. Next, add the diced portabellos, sautee until reduced to 1/2 their original size

4. Add the cabernet, and reduce to a simmer.

5. Add herbs, pepper, smidge of salt (more can be added before serving if need be.)

6. Let the liquid reduce by half, and keep an eye on it, it can get kinda tricky at this point. Taste, add more salt and herbs if desired.

7. Serve over roasted turkey, or over a good standing rib roast, and enjoy.

Recipe Name : Italian Wedding Soup
About Recipe : Old Family Recipe
Ingredients:You don't need a wedding for this one!!! My great-grandmother never weighed or measured anything...she just put in what she thought was right...so experiment with the spices

MEAT BALLS
1 pound ground sirloin
1 eggs
1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
garlic (about 1 TBS is what I add)
dried parsley (about 1 TBS or 1/4 cup fresh chopped)
1 tsp oregano
1 TBSP dried basil
(or for a quick version you can use the frozen meatballs... I won't tell)
SOUP
Fill a large pot 3/4 way with water
1 chicken (or you can use about 6 chicken breasts)
6 boulion cubes (only if you insist on removing the skin...because that's where a lot of the flavor is)
2 boxes of frozen spinach unthawed and moisture removed or 6 cups of fresh chopped spinach washed
2 cups finely chopped carrots
1 cup finely chopped celery
small egg noodles of your choice (acinni d'peppi works well or home made ones too)
Paremsan cheese (our favorite is Lacatelle)
Method:MEAT BALLS
mix sirloin, egg, bread crumbs and spices in a large bowl
form into very small meatballs
bake in oven approximately 1/2 hour at 350
SOUP
bring to boil chicken, celery and carrots, cool and chunk chicken
return to boil and add meatballs and noodles boil until noodles tender, (but not mushy!!!)
Add 1 TBS cold water to stop noodles from absorbing more fluid
add spinach just before serving
(NOTE: if you are going to serve the soup on another day, do not add spinach until then, as it will turn your soup GREEN)
Serve with grated Lacatelle or your favorite parmesan cheese
