Pumpkin Maple Mousse Pie (No Bake!)

Written By Kristen Dittami - November 19 2015

This light and airy pie is another slam dunk for oven space and prep ahead! Make the whole thing the night before and chill. Your family will love the pumpkin pie flavor and rich, mousse texture.

Sausage & Fruit Stuffed Turkey Breast

Written By Kristen Dittami - November 17 2015

This impressive turkey breast is way easier than it looks. Bonus: it cooks in about an hour! We made it this year because we have one oven in the Test Kitchen and did not want to hold it hostage all day with a giant bird. (Hint... this may happen to you at home too!) This recipe is also great if you have a big crowd and want a little something extra.

Chesapeake Oyster & Chard Gratin

Written By Kristen Dittami - November 05 2015

Truth: At our Thanksgiving shoot, there were a few skeptics. (Oyster, what?!) One bite and lives were changed. This dish was the best part of our meal and will be a staple in Tesse homes for years to come. It's comforting, rich and creamy (but those dark greens sure make it seem a little less sinful)! It's smokey from the bacon and crisp from the cracker crust. Just do yourself a favor and make this one.
