Impress Your Holiday Guests

We're just weeks away from Thanksgiving, and hosting your family gathering is made so easy with delicious side dishes from my "grate" friends at Wisconsin Cheese!

With their award-winning cheeses, Wisconsin Cheese takes your average dishes and brings them to the next level. Their MVP ingredient wins more cheese awards than anywhere in the country and the world, so being called the State of Cheese is truly well earned! They're also the only state to require a license to make cheese, so you can trust every one of their products is made and aged to perfection by only the best cheesemakers.

To help impress your guests this Turkey Day, today's menu includes a few sizzling side dishes to dig into.

First, get those forks ready and take a bite of this Sausage-Stuffed Acorn Squash made with Aged Gouda. This new fall-favorite features medium acorn squash stuffed with savory Italian sausage, onions, diced apples, baby spinach, and the creamy, buttery goodness of Wisconsin's Aged Gouda for a blend of flavors you and your guests will love.

This next side dish is almost too pretty to eat! Check out this Bourbon-Glazed Carrot and Gorgonzola recipe. Made with rainbow carrots, dried cherries, and Wisconsin's delicious Gorgonzola, your guests will swoon over the simplicity of this yummy side dish.

And finally, coleslaw lovers will make this next recipe vanish from the table. It's a Balsamic Coleslaw with Candied Walnuts sprinkled throughout. But what makes this coleslaw unique is the shaved Wisconsin Copper Kettle cheese to bring a robust, sweet caramel finish.

So the next time you're at the grocery store, look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge in the cheese aisle and visit WisconsinCheese.com for more recipe inspiration this holiday. Have a happy Thanksgiving!
