    Well….although not a vegetarian…I really want to make this yummy recipe and start teaching my girls that not every meal needs meat. My Catherine HATES meat and always mentions that she wishes I wouldn’t cook with it…so HERE WE GO! An adventure into vegetarian meals in the Harris House! Thanks, Heather!
