Main Dish - Italian Sausage Peppers And Onions

My family has been using this very simple and delicious recipe for sausage, peppers, and onions for years and years now. For an extra kick, try using half sweet sausage and half hot sausage!

Meat And Poultry - The Best Bean And Ham Soup

I make this hearty soup using the ham bone from our Easter spiral ham. It makes a huge pot of soup, so invite some friends or just freeze several portions for later use.

Desserts - Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti

The red and green make a great Christmas cookie. Have used other nuts instead of pistachios with success. If your pistachios are salted, omit the 1/4 teaspoon salt from the recipe.
