Try this delicious, kid-friendly vegetarian recipe for your meatless Monday! The garlic, pine nuts, and white wine pump up the flavor in this dish. And the parmesan cheese disguises the broccoli flavor for the kids.
These steaks are incredibly easy to do with a few simple ingredients that are available year round and full of big flavor. This is probably a 15 minute main dish. Serve with a delicious salad, like my Organic Arugula Radicchio Salad and you have a whole meal.
Lobster Mac N Cheese is one of my favorite winter dishes. It can get expensive in restaurants, so I like to make it at home for a treat. You can now buy just the lobster tail in stores if you don't want to deal with a whole live lobster, which is what I use for this recipe. If you want to pump up the flavor even more in this recipe, use truffle butter or oil.
If 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.

Top 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.
