These Baked Mashed Potatoes with Cream Cheese are the ultimate comfort food and make the perfect side dish for holiday baking. These make-ahead potatoes can be made 1-2 days in advance and then baked just before serving. Made with cream cheese, butter in the potatoes and on top, and cream, they are ultimately creamy and buttery, with a light golden top. Here a spoon is scooping the potatoes out of the pan in the center of the image

This Cowboy Caviar (aka Texas Caviar or Mississippi Caviar) is a classic summer side dish. Easy to prepare and full of flavor, it's a favorite choice for potlucks, barbecues, and get-togethers. Filled with black beans, black-eyed peas, tomatoes, corn, sweet peppers, avocado, green onion, and cilantro, and tossed with a lime and red wine vinegar dressing, we love serving this with tortilla chips or as a side with grilled chicken. Here the Cowboy Caviar is shown in a large bowl being scooped up with a wooden spoon in the center of the bowl.

This Homemade Chicken and Dumpling soup is a flavorful, comforting soup, perfect for a rainy day or when sickness hits at home. The dumplings are like drop biscuits, they are easy to make and come together in a few minutes before cooking in the soup. My favorite thing about this soup is the delicious, thickened broth that results from the dumplings cooking in the soup. This has been a family favorite for years. Here the soup is pictured served in two soup bowls with a linen, spoons, and a spring of rosemary.
