HOLIDAY BEANS AND CRANBERRIES
from Betty Crocker's Holiday cookbook
Contributor: Donna
- 1 bag (16 ounces) frozen cut green beans
- 1 teaspoon grated orange peel
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup Bacon flavor bits or chips
Cook beans as directed on package, adding orange peel before cooking; drain. Stir in cranberries and honey. Top with bacon bits. 4 servings.
*Substitution: you can use 1 lbs of fresh green beans. Leave beans whole, or cut into 1" pieces. Boil uncovered 7 minutes or until crisp tender.
*Special Touch: For a festive look that says holiday, arrange the green beans on a platter in the shape of a wreath. (They have a picture with fresh orange wedges and berries in the center of the "wreath")
MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES
Contributor: Cindy Stier
- 5 lb. potatoes
- 1 c. Half & Half
- 1 tsp. onion salt
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1-8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 c. (1 stick) butter
- 1 tsp. Lawry's seasoned salt
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
Peel potatoes, cook until tender and drain. Beat softened cream cheese with Half & Half with mixer. Add hot potatoes and blend well. Add butter and seasoning. Put in casserole. Brush top with butter and sprinkle with paprika. Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated. Bake just enough to heat through and brown top. *NOTE: When I make these, I just mash the potatoes with my hand mixer and add all other ingredients at once and beat. This works just fine. Enjoy!

I made these potatoes and they are delicious!
