Laurel’s Stuffed Mushrooms
Having made this recipe so many times, I have forgotten who Laurel actually is. What I haven't forgotten is that is one the most requested recipes.

Roasted Rosemary Pecans

I usually double the recipe, as it freezes beautifully. 2 1/2 T. unsalted butter 2… Continue reading Roasted Rosemary Pecans
