Default Holiday season recipies

With the holidays coming up, how about sharing some of your favorite holiday recipies?

Here's one of mine:

Cranberry sauce (yeah, but it is *good*)

1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 lb fresh cranberries
1 orange, chopped (peel and all)
1/2 cup crushed pineapple
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 tsp ground gloves
sprinkle of cinnamon

Pour sugar and water in a pan, mix and heat to a boil. Clean the cranberries and add to the boiling water.

Give the orange a rough chop, and add to the boiling mix once the berries start popping. Stir and return to boil. Add the rest of the ingredients; the pineapple, the chopped walnuts, cloves and cinnamon. Stir everything together and let it heat through. Take it off the heat.

Now for the fun part. If you have a stick blender (most fun), add it to the pot and run it just enough so that all the orange pieces and berries are chopped up. It should still be a little "lumpy" (it's called "texture"). If you don't have a stick blender, you'll have to pour the mix into a regular blender, and run it just for a little bit to get everything nicely chopped. Set aside, and when cooled, store in the refrigerator.

Should yield 6-8 servings. Goes well with pretty much everything; Turkey, chicken, pork or even a vegitarian meal...

I like to cook venison (that's bambi for the unaware)

Soak in milk for 24 hours in the fridge to remove the "game" taste

Slow cook the quarter of meat in a crockpot with a McCormick's Beef Stew seasoning packet, add fresh veggies as you see fit (I like yellow peppers, potatoes, carrots, celery, parsley and a hint of onion). After about 6 hours of slow cooking the meat will fall apart when you stir the stew. Serve it in bowls.

Its quite tasty, and much better for you than beef given that venison is a considerable leaner meat with little fat (infact, to make sasuage balls with ground venison it takes 25% beef fat + 75% venison to make the meat stick to the flower and cheese!)
