Hey folks,

Before the holiday tomorrow, I want to wish you and your family a happy, safe, and peaceful Thanksgiving.

There is so much I am grateful for: my family and community, the opportunity to start a campaign focused on New Jersey’s future, and the commitment and generosity of this grassroots team.

Between getting this new campaign off the ground and several years of rushing back home from Washington for Thanksgiving, I know what it’s like to be in a pinch for an exciting holiday recipe. So if you’re looking for a dish to make for your family or friends, I’ve got you covered with a Sherrill family staple!

This spin on a classic cheesecake is one of my all-time favorites, and it has become a tradition with my family. If you’re a fan of spicy food, I bet you’ll love it — but if not, I still encourage you to give it a try! ( After I shared this recipe last year, I got a lot of thumbs-up reviews! )

Happy Thanksgiving,

Mikie
