Plant-Based Deliciousness
Is is fall where you live yet? I feel like it has finally arrived here in Northern Virginia so I decided to celebrate with a simple but filling Oktoberfest-inspired dinner. I love a good baked potato dinner and, you guys, these giant potatoes stuffed with…
The gorgeous pop of color and irresistible flavor combination make these potatoes perfect for the holiday table! The sweet potatoes of my childhood Thanksgivings were of the traditional Southern-style casserole variety which meant loads of sugar, butter, and, of course, marshmallows. I’m not knocking it…
