Cider-Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Cranberries

Cider-Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Cranberries
Tamara - 2006 -Coolest Recipes
This just seemed a bit odd to my tastebuds
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 1/2 C. apple cider or apple juice
1/4 C. (packed) golden brown sugar
2 T. butter
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground allspice
1/2 C. dried cranberries
Boil sweet potatoes in a large pot of salted water until halfway cooked (when a knife inserted into center will encounter resistance), about 5 minutes. Drain and cool. (This step can be done 1 day ahead if sweet potatoes are covered and refrigerated.)
Combine cider, sugar, butter, nutmeg and allspice in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Add potatoes and reduce heat so liquid is simmering. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add cranberries and continue cooking until liquid is reduced to a syrupy glaze and potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. (If the glaze becomes very thick before potatoes become tender, thin it with a small amount of cider.)
When potatoes are tender, transfer to a serving bowl with a slotted spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour remaining glaze over sweet potatoes and serve.
Makes 6 servings.

7. Sweet Onions Stuffed with Broccoli - Review
Posted by: “Jenn
Sweet Onions Stuffed with Broccoli
Tamara 2006 Coolest Recipe
I think that there has to be a different way to do this one. I dont know what I did but my onions did not keep shape.
3 medium sweet onions, such as Vidalias
1 (10 oz.) package frozen chopped broccoli
2/3 C. shredded Parmesan cheese
1/4 C. mayonnaise
2 t. lemon juice
2 T. flour
2 T. butter
1/4 t. salt
2/3 C. milk
1 (3 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
Peel and halve onions crosswise. Parboil in salted water 10 minutes; drain. Lift out centers, leaving 3/4-inch edges to form cups. Chop center portions to equal 1 cup. Cook or microwave broccoli and drain (or simply thaw). Combine chopped onions, broccoli, Parmesan, mayo and lemon juice. Spoon into centers of onion cups set side by side in baking pan. Have oven heating to 375 F.
Melt butter in small saucepan. Blend in flour and salt. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in milk. Return to heat and cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; blend in cream cheese. Spoon sauce over onions. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
Yield: 6 servings
