Cooking with Herbs ~ May 2017

Jen's roasted chicken

Thyme, rosemary, sage, basil, parsley, fennel.... all yummy stuff tucked away in each bite we enjoyed.  These herbs were found in both our savory and sweet dishes!

Jen made roast chicken - loaded with herbs and we each brought something to go along with dinner and dessert!  Its amazing the different dishes that can be created with simple herbs.
