This is one of my favorite things to make for holidays and special celebrations! It's a wonderful, sweet and savory dish that incorporates elements of the cuisine that I enjoyed growing up. Plus, you can prepare it night and just throw it in the oven the next morning. —Danielle Pfanstiehl, Andover, Connecticut
