Last Minute Thanksgiving Recipe Round Up
Before we get down to the delicious food in this post, I wanted to share the turkey I “adopted” this year for Thanksgiving, meet Jackie!

Savory Sweet Potato Fall Crescent Rolls

Jenn’s Tasty Rice
I know what you are thinking….this rice looks like any other brown rice. I am here to tell you that your are very mistaken. Even my husband picked up his plate, took a look at the rice, and asked if there was a sauce to pour on top of it. I smiled and told him…
Mushroom Risotto with Pearled Barley
The first time I ever had mushroom risotto was while visiting a friend in Raleigh, North Carolina. We went to the restaurant where she worked part time and the chef kept sending us goodies to try. Hands down, my favorite food he sent to our table was his mushroom risotto. The second it touched my…
