Eggplant Parmesan

This stuff is GREAT!!! It's better than any eggplant parmesan I've ever had in a restaurant.

Warm Chévre and Apple Rings with Manitoba Hemp Seed Oil Vinaigrette

A truly amazing combination of flavors. The dressing is divine, the warm and tart goat cheese combined with the sweetness of apple ring is truly out of this world.
