Check after the recipe for Phase One Flashbacks from this day in 2012 and 2013.)

That doesn’t mean he still doesn’t enjoy a meat-less meal or that we don’t make meat-less meals as a regular part of our life, the deliciously simple dish of Mujadara or Spinach pie shows otherwise.
However, he does like a hearty beef stew with all it’s fine fixins.
