Not your Mama's Green Bean Casserole!


Here's a great twist on serving green beans for Thanksgiving. Gone are the days of Cream of Mushroom Soup and Fried Onion...bring on the bacon instead!!!!
 
Balsamic Green Beans with Pancetta
1 cup pancetta, diced
12 ounce green beans
2 teaspoons Wildtree Garlic & Herb Blend
¼ cup Wildtree Flavored Balsamic Vinegar
 
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and sauté until browned. Drain off most of the grease; leave a small amount for sauteing the green beans. Meanwhile blanch the green beans in boiling water for 3-5 minutes. Drain and add green beans to the skillet with the pancetta. Season with the Garlic & Herb Blend; sauté for 1 minute. Add the Balsamic Vinegar; continue cooking until most of the vinegar is evaporated. Season with salt and pepper if desired.

Brie en Croute

This would make a delicious holiday appetizer!
 
Brie en Croute
1 sheet puff pastry
4 ounces brie
8 teaspoons Wildtree Spiced Cranberry Jam

Preheat oven to 400°F and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Cut each pastry sheet into 16 squares. (Cut sheet in half, then cut each half in half. Repeat in opposite direction and you will end up with 16 squares). Cut brie into 16 pieces. Place one piece of brie in the center of each square, then top each with about ½ teaspoon of the jam. Wet your finger and run it along all four edges of a square, then bring the four corners together in the center and pinch together. You also want to pinch along the edges to seal.

Baked Kale Chips
3 cups kale, torn into bite size pieces
1 tablespoon Smoky Bacon Flavor Grapeseed Oil
1 tablespoon Wildtree Spicy Cheddar Popcorn Seasoning (or Rodeo Rub, or Scampi or ANY Wildtree favorite!)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl add the kale and Bacon Oil. Use your hands to scrunch the leaves and cover the leaves with the Oil. Add the Spicy Cheddar Popcorn Seasoning and toss with hands so all the leaves are covered. Place in a single layer on a sheet pan (use two pans if necessary.) Bake for 10 minutes, turn the chips, and then continue cooking for 10-15 minutes more. (Smaller pieces will crisp up faster and can be removed from the other sooner. Check every 5 minutes for doneness.)

I hope the sun is shining where you are...it is not on Cape Cod! This Beef Stew recipe is sure to hit the spot on such a foggy day!

Italian Beef Stew
5 tablespoons Wildtree Natural or Roasted Garlic Grapeseed Oil, divided
4 medium carrots, chopped into 1/2-inch thick pieces (2 cups)
3 stalks celery, chopped into 1/2-inch thick pieces (1 1/2 cups)
1 onion, diced
2 tablespoons Wildtree Garlic Galore Seasoning
2 ½ pound rump roast, fat trimmed and cut into 1 inch cubes
¼ cup flour
1 teaspoon Wildtree Rancher Steak Rub
4 cups Wildtree Beef Bouillon Soup Base, prepared according to package directions, divided 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, drained
1 ½ pounds red potatoes, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 tablespoon Wildtree Hearty Spaghetti Sauce Blend
2 tablespoons fresh thyme
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

Heat 2 tablespoons of the Grapeseed Oil olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once hot add carrots, celery and onion and sauté until lightly golden, about 5 - 6 minutes. Add Garlic Galore and sauté 30 seconds longer. Transfer mixture to a slow cooker and set to high. Place beef in mixing bowl, add flour and Rancher Steak Rub. Toss well to evenly coat beef in flour. Return pot to medium-high heat, add remaining 3 Tablespoons Grapeseed Oil. Once oil is hot add beef and cook stirring occasionally until beef has browned. Add 1 cup Beef Bouillon and red wine vinegar and cook, stirring frequently while scraping bottom of pan to loosen browned bits on bottom, until sauce has thickened. Transfer to slow cooker. Add remaining 3 cups Beef Bouillon, diced tomatoes, potatoes, and Hearty Spaghetti Seasoning; stir to combine. Cover and bring mixture just to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 5 hours, stirring occasionally, until beef is very tender. Stir in fresh thyme and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper to taste (if desired).

#27 - Teriyaki Turkey Meatballs served over steamed rice and broccoli

Make this dinner ahead of time before heading out to the beach, on the water, to the pool, on the boat, into the mountains...anywhere you choose to spend a beautiful Saturday! This way, you're sure to come home to a delicious home cooked meal.

Teriyaki Turkey Meatballs

Meatballs:
2 pounds ground turkey
1 box Wildtree Just Like Mom’s Meatloaf Mix
2 eggs, beaten
2 scallions, diced
1 teaspoon grated ginger
¼ cup Wildtree Pacific Fusion

Sauce:
½ cup Wildtree Pacific Fusion
½ cup brown sugar
½ tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix all of the meatball ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Form the mixture into 2 inch meatballs (should make about 32 meatballs). Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium to high heat. Sear the meatballs on all sides. Transfer them to a greased baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes, or until they are cooked through. Meanwhile prepare the sauce. Combine all the sauce ingredients in a large saucepan (big enough to hold all the meatballs). Heat the sauce over low heat. Stir often. Once the meatballs are cooked, transfer them to the saucepan. Use a rubber spatula to “stir” the meatballs and coat them in the sauce. Cover and continue cooking for about 5 minutes. Serve the meatballs and sauce over rice with steamed broccoli.

#22 - Baja Fish Torta with a fresh summer fruit salad.

 Perfect dinner for a warm summer night! Excellent with a refreshing salad of local summer fruits.

Baja Fish Torta

1/4 cup light mayo
1 tablespoon capers, rough chopped
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon Wildtree Chipotle lime Rub
1/4 teaspoon plus 1 teaspoon Wildtree Jalapeno Pepper Blend
1/2 pound swordfish, cut into 2 equal portions
1/4 cup Wildtree Sweet & Savory Pineapple Sauce
1/2 avocado
2 cactus paddles, de-spined, trimmed (optional)
2 teaspoons Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 rolls, halved and toasted
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
 
In a small bowl combine the mayo, capers, lime juice, Chipotle Lime Rub, and ¼ teaspoon of Jalapeno Pepper Blend. Set aside. In a separate bowl marinate the swordfish with the remaining 1 teaspoon of Jalapeno Pepper Blend and the Pineapple Sauce for about 10 minutes. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat. Brush the cactus paddles and avocado with Grapeseed Oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the cactus paddles for about 3 minutes on each side; be careful not to overcook otherwise they become mucilaginous. Grill the avocado just long enough to leave some grill marks. Set these ingredients aside. Next grill the swordfish for about 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. To assemble sandwiches spread the mayo mixture on each half of the rolls. Top the bottom halves with a cactus paddle, the swordfish, then a few slices of the avocado, cilantro, and a top bun.
