So when I first heard this challenge, I thought cool I got this. Thought the month, I couldn't decide what to do. I wanted a dish that was all veggies and that is pretty rare at our house. I did made some vegetarian dishes this month but trust me it was not photo worthy. I actually made this back in June for The Brother’s birthday and I never had a chance to post it. I apologize now but I don’t remember where I saw the recipe. If it is yours, please let me know.
