Grass fed Bison Chili with Shiitake Mushrooms PDF Print E-mail
Written by Laura Klein, Publisher   

grass fed bison chiliIf you want a new twist on an old favorite this chili recipe is a must! Grass-fed bison gives this chili a healthy lean twist that is really yummy. You can make this a day ahead, reheat, and serve. In fact it tastes better when the flavors are allowed to sit for at least one day. I have also made this chili with beer instead of wine, your choice! If you serve this for a large party, accompany it with a simple salad, like our Roasted Organic Beet Salad with Aged Goat Cheese Recipe.

Easy Fresh Herb Organic Turkey With Fresh Herb Gravy PDF Print E-mail
Written by Laura Klein, Publisher   
organic-turkeyTop tips: When roasting a turkey, figure 12 minutes per pound for a 15-pound unstuffed turkey. If you decide to stuff the turkey add about 5 minutes more per pound. Rotate the bird one third of the way through cooking time, starting with breast side up, then rotate breast side down, then finish breast side up. This will help distribute the juices evenly throughout the bird to help keep it moist.

Serves 10-12
