While I enjoy spending a long time in the kitchen preparing fancy meals, I definitely appreciate those dishes that are quick “go-to” staples, the ones I can just throw in the oven after a long day. This recipe is perfect for that. Just chop, bake, and season. So simple, yet so good! Sweet potatoes go with […]
Well despite a beautiful fall, old-man winter is knocking at my door, about to snatch away the last bit of warm weather before the on-set of the official “holiday season” and blustery temps.
