Creamy Braised Chicory/Belgian Endive and Celery With Peas

This recipe would make a lovley side dish to your Christmas of Thanksgiving turkey. In fact the recipe source (‘Good Food’ magazine December 2005) suggests to serve this at Christmas. It serves 8 as a side dish together with another side dish. However, it can also be served as a main dish as I did. It will serve 3 then. We had this as a main course together with ‘wild rice mix’ (longgrain rice with wild rice pieces in it). Lovely!

Brussels Sprouts in Vinaigrette

We always enjoy vinegar on our cabbage, greens and Brussels sprouts. This recipe is from the Daytona News-Journal and was adapted from the Washington Post.

Belgian Beef Stew With Beer

One of my old standby real comfort food recipes. Very easy to make, and the combination of the flavors of the caramelized onions and beer give it a very subtle, complex rich taste without giving it a lot of extra calories. Great with rice, mashed potatoes or noodles and a simple green vegetable.
