Thanksgiving is almost upon us, so it’s time to get cooking! First, we ask chef Tanya Holland to share some fun, fresh ideas for the big meal. Tanya is the author of three cookbooks, including most recently the gorgeous California Soul. She shares recipes for her stuffed sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts salad, which you can find below!

Then, food writer and chef Tamar Adler tells us about The Everlasting Meal Cookbook: Leftovers A to Z. It’s a follow-up to her 2012 book An Everlasting Meal: Cooking with Economy and Grace. In it, she argues that repurposing leftovers is not just about being frugal, but it is actually the way that great cooking is done. It’s a perfect opportunity to whip up something new with your Thanksgiving leftovers!
