RECIPES!!!

One of the greatest concerns for Tom seems to be the holidays. How this drastic change will forever change our ability to enjoy the holiday meals we have shared in the past. One of the most enjoyable things about cooking, for me anyway, is taking a recipe we USED to enjoy and modify it to fit our present dietary requirements. I have been hunting all over the web for recipes to utilize the protein powder "Unjury"....AND I HAVE FOUND Thanksgiving Recipes!! Certainly not dressing, potatoes, and pecan pie (yet), but here is the beginnings..... (all for you, my Darling Man!)
