The sweet, soft tang of goat cheese melds perfectly with the slightly sour cranberries, in this Thanksgiving-inspired dinner that won't leave you with a tryptophan hangover. The sage-y sauce is better than your Aunt's gravy (we won't tell her) and these seasoned Brussels sprouts beat any green bean casserole by a wide mile. So shove it, Turkey Day! Whoops, we mean, have a lovely holiday with your friends and family. Tip: Make quick work of mincing garlic by smashing the whole clove with the side of your chef's knife. Then rock the knife back and forth, keeping the tip steady by resting your other hand over the top.
