Grilled Broccolini

Garlic Pepper Sauce

Method

Sweet Potato Pecan Casserole

  1. 1

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Peel and chop the sweet potatoes. Boil in a pot of salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mash and Mix

    Drain the sweet potatoes and mash them in a large bowl. Add brown sugar, butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add Pecans and Bake

    Stir in half of the pecans and cinnamon, then pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish. Top with remaining pecans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

Grilled Broccolini

  1. 4

    Prepare Broccolini

    Trim the ends of the broccolini and wash thoroughly. Toss with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Grill Broccolini

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the broccolini for about 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and charred.

Garlic Pepper Sauce

  1. 6

    Make the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in black pepper and lemon juice. Season with salt to taste.
