Today’s recipe comes to us courtesy of Vital Choice customer Fran McCollum
As she says, “This freezes well and makes a great breakfast or main dish.”
And she offers a tip: “I cut and add whole sprigs of rosemary on the branch; then when it's crispy I easily remove the green part into the dish, going against the way the leaf grows.”
Thanks, Fran!
