It's time for my favorite recipes for winter! When it turns cold outside (er, is it cold outside?) these are the recipes to turn to for comfort. They will warm you up inside and out, will warm your home, and make your house smell fantastic. Enjoy!
1. Mexican Pizza
This fabulous recipe is one of the first I ever created. It's rich and satisfying and perfect for a cold winter night. Make the crust ahead of time and the topping too, then when you're ready to bake all you have to do is assemble the pizzas and pop them in the oven.
2. Corned Beef and Cabbage Tarts
For some reason, I only serve this recipe in the winter months. Once I served it to company along with Fresh Tomato Soup (using canned tomatoes) and a green salad. It was a smash!
3. Chocolate Oatmeal Cake
Since my birthday and my husband's both fall in January, I'm thinking of recipes that we both love to eat for this season's list. One of his favorite cakes is German Chocolate Cake. I've improved upon the classic by adding oatmeal and a broiled topping full of coconut and chocolate. Yum.
4. Crockpot Beef Stroganoff
This is one of my favorite recipes of all time. I've served it to company, to family, and eaten most of it all by myself! You'll love it too.
5. Crockpot Orange Curried Chicken
This is my husband's favorite winter recipe - and one of mine too! It's rich and delicious with a fabulously complex flavor. Serve it over brown Basmati rice for lots of fiber and wonderful taste.
