Recipe Notes<\/p>\n

9\/24\/12–Terry Pogue
\nThis years version: I used bacon lardons instead of the ham, shallot instead of leeks, canned diced Muir Glen Tomatoes. Ground thyme, because I really like the flavor of thyme to pop and the juice from a half a juicy lemon… probably lightly more than called for in the recipe. I served it with steamed brown rice tonight. In the past I’ve also served it with soft polenta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
