Be prepared for all your friends and family this holiday with try some new plant strong, drool inducing dishes! I made this Shepards pie for Thanksgiving and spent some big bucks on fancy mushrooms (I used 2 porcini and about a pound of maitakes) and 8 gorgeous golden potatoes instead of russets to make it extra special. It was out of SIGHT and awesomely easy! Check back with us all month long as we plan to fill your inbox with recipes that will leave you feeling satiated and filled with positive energy.
