Fiesta Chili Dip with Ground Turkey and Corn


Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground turkey
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 can (15 ounces) vegetarian chili with beans
1 can (11 ounces) corn kernels, well drained
1⁄2 cup thinly sliced scallions
1⁄2 cup chunky tomato salsa
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Mexican cheese blend

Preparation
1. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and season with the salt. Cook, breaking the meat into small pieces as you stir, until no trace of pink remains, 5 to 7 minutes.

2. Stir in the chili powder and cumin. Add the chili, corn, scallions, and salsa. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a shallow 11⁄2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top. (If made in advance, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)

3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake, uncovered, for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the turkey mixture is bubbly hot. Serve warm.

Overnight Soft Herb Rolls


Ingredients
1 package active dry yeast (about 1 tbsp.)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 tablespoon minced rosemary
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 large egg plus 1 tbsp. lightly beaten egg, divided
1 cup milk or half-and-half
3 1/2 to 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
About 1 tbsp. coarse salt

Preparation
1. In a large bowl, sprinkle yeast over 1/4 cup cool (70°) water. Let stand until dissolved, 5 minutes. Stir in sugar, table salt, herbs, butter, whole egg, and milk; add 3 1/4 cups flour and stir to moisten.

2. Knead dough on a lightly floured board until elastic and not sticky, 15 minutes; add flour as needed to prevent sticking. Shape into 12 equal balls; place in a well-buttered 9- by 13-in. pan.

3. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled, 45 to 60 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°. Brush rolls with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake until deep golden, 25 to 30 minutes.

Make ahead: Prepare through step 2; immediately wrap airtight (do not let rise) and chill up to 1 day. Proceed with step 3.

Chili-glazed Sweet Potatoes


Ingredients
4 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes or yams
2/3 cup red jalapeƱo jelly
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
About 3 tablespoons lime juice
Salt

Preparation
1. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. Divide chunks equally between 2 lightly oiled baking pans (each 10 by 15 in.); cover tightly with foil.

2. Bake in a 450° oven for 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until sweet potatoes are tender when pierced, about 25 minutes longer; switch pan positions halfway through baking.

3. Meanwhile, put jelly in a 2-cup glass measure. Heat in a microwave oven at full power (100%) until softened, about 20 seconds. Add vinegar and stir until well blended.

4. Combine sweet potatoes in 1 pan. Pour jelly mixture evenly over potatoes and turn chunks with a spatula to coat evenly. Continue baking until jelly mixture thickens and sticks to sweet potatoes, about 10 minutes, turning chunks often to prevent scorching.

5. Pour into a wide bowl. Sprinkle with cilantro and add about 3 tablespoons lime juice and salt to taste.

3.In a separate mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup flour with baking powder and salt, then stir into chocolate mixture.
