People have asked me what kind of things I serve up during the holidays, so I decided that I would just write a quick blog post to share them with you.

Sometimes, we have the traditional Tofurky Vegetarian Feast served with potatoes, bread, stuffing, etc.  But, lately, I have really been into these delicious Field Roasts!

One of the great things about this roast is that it only took 40 minutes to bake!!!!  I didn’t spend all of my Thanksgiving day making food.  As a matter of fact, I was able to prepare our Thanksgiving meal,  clean my house, do the laundry, and even cut my daughter’s hair!  We had a wonderful and productive day!
