  • Cabbage Rolls (Sarmi)

    Main Course: I am born to immigrant parents from Germany, but I was raised also by my stepfather who is Bulgarian. He provided for me and my siblings. One of our traditions on Christmas Eve was eating cabbage rolls called Sarmi. I think after many years of trying to replicate what my father has made for us I finally feel like I made a match. It is a process. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

  • Garlic Herb Butter Prime Rib with Red Wine Au Jus

    Main Course: This is part of my 2021 Christmas Eve Dinner, a gourmet feast I have made every year since 2010(except 2020). I started this tradition with my wife and in-laws, and it has grown to include my children and my parents when they moved to be closer to me in 2016.

  • The Best Turkey & Stuffing You'll Ever Have!

    Main Course: This recipe was cited by my Mom as "the best turkey I've ever had". It's also the most-requested item when my team at work has a potluck (3 for 3 so far...). I hope it brings as much joy to you and your family and friends!
