Comments

This is an elegant side dish for Easter dinners or Christmas and Thanksgiving Dinners. It goes so very well with all roasted meats.

Geared to an adults palate, however, every kid who ever ate it BECAUSE it was for grown-ups adore it!!

If you have game meats, such as pheasant, grouse or venison you will make this a standard for your meals, it is excellent.
