Happy New Year!

We prepared this dish for a dinner party last month that wanted a “Fall / Winter” Theme and the guests at the dinner party raved about it! There were no leftovers that night. We decided to incorporate this dish into our cooking services for other clients also. This dish is not only tasty, earthy yet sweet, it is very nutritious. The fiber and vitamins come from the veggies and then you have some protein from the walnuts. It is will be a favorite at your next meal, event or party!
