Potato Leek Soup

 Linda Peck made this soup and her husband Tom shared it with Mike and I on November 15th.  This was the opening day of deer hunting in Michigan.  Tom shot an 8 point buck in the morning and we were celebrating with Champagne and potato soup. A great pairing!

Linda said that she makes it with half and half rather than heavy cream.  Also, fresh ingredients are the key as is well drained Nueskes bacon.

Shiitake Mushrooms and Potato Enchiladas

 I have fresh shiitake mushroom from logs that our neighbors Tom and Linda gave us. I used these for the recipes rather than dried mushrooms. For this recipe I used sweet potatoes and made my own green chili sauce.  It was fantastic, I will make this again.  Thanks Yummly.
