Bon Voyage Heidi!
For the past six months we have given thanks, made colorful plates, expanded our pantry, created buddha bowls, faced the day, cooked with inspiring ingredients to make picture perfect dishes, made accompaniments, and sipped our way through Heidi Swanson's recipes. It has been a fun ride while it lasted.
This week we are saying Bon Voyage Heidi as we make one more dish, and/or create a roundup of our top favorite Heidi recipes! Make and post your Bon Voyage Heidi recipe by Sunday, April 2nd. Please link a picture and comment below.
