Elevated Winter Salad

There should always be a fresh salad included in a holiday meal. Give store-purchased dressing (or even your personal recipe!) a new spin by adding a hint of fruit spread. It coats the salad perfectly for a slightly thicker and more satisfying starter.

The Main Dish

No matter what entree graces your holiday table, creating a fruit spread-based glaze makes it even better. Whip up a quick mixture for basting turkey, ham, or big roasts by adding turkey stock, a bit of flour, salt, and pepper to fruit spread over heat and using a basting brush to spread it on top.

Roasted Vegetables

A side of roasted or steamed vegetables always rounds out a holiday spread, but you can make those savory veggies a touch sweeter by tossing them with butter and fruit spread. Make sure to do so while they're still hot so all the flavors melt together evenly.
