Nutrition and Convenience
Holiday
entertaining can be easier than many people realize. You may even enjoy
feasting from the pantry. Not only are many pantry staples convenient
and bursting with flavor, they can be a nutritious addition to any meal.
In fact, a recent study conducted by the University of California, Davis
found that all forms of fruits and vegetables--canned, fresh and
frozen--are nutritionally similar and contribute to a healthy diet.
Whether you’re combining rich pumpkin with hearty canned sweet potatoes
for a mousse, pepping up your turkey stuffing with Southwestern flavors
or even producing incredible mashed potatoes, canned ingredients can
offer the busy holiday chef quick and easy ways to create new culinary
customs while adding nutrients.
Chef, columnist and cookbook author Andrew Schloss offers this advice:
Simplify your holiday meal preparations by using canned foods from your
pantry. Not only are they delicious and nutritious, but they’ll also
speed things up so you can enjoy the holiday festivities with your
family, not your kitchen stove.” |

Canned Food Alliance has developed a contemporary twist on classic
holiday fare, including Chili Cornbread Stuffing, Roasted Pear and
Cranberry Relish, Glorified Mashed Potatoes and Sweet Potato Pumpkin
Mousse.
