Marry Me Recipes FAQ
What makes Marry Me recipes so good?
The ingredient that makes Marry Me recipes so good is the cream. Most Marry Me recipes use a liberal amount of heavy whipping cream. As far as savory Marry Me recipes go, the sauce usually contains sun-dried tomatoes and Parmesan, which make it more complex and decadent.
What sides pair well with Marry Me recipes?
Sides that pair well with savory Marry Me recipes are melting cabbage, melting or fondant potatoes, roasted asparagus, hot honey sweet potatoes, au gratin potatoes or Caesar smashed potatoes. Homemade garlic bread is also an indulgent (but easy!) option, and a vinegary side salad will cut some of the heavy richness.
For accompaniments to go with sweet Marry Me recipes, you can’t go wrong with homemade whipped cream, the best vanilla ice cream and after-dinner drinks like dessert wine.
How can you make Marry Me recipes vegetarian?
You can make Marry Me recipes vegetarian by warming precooked lentils, white beans or chickpeas in the classic cream-and-sundried-tomato-based sauce. Make the sauce recipe from our Marry Me chicken recipe. Right after you add the heavy cream, stir in your precooked beans or legumes. Allow everything to warm through, then add the spinach and Parmesan. If the sauce seems runny, thicken the sauce with a cornstarch slurry.
