Mealtime Magic: Harvestland Recipes

Disclosure: I received complimentary products from Moms Meet to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own. 

I recently had the chance to try out all-natural poultry products from Harvestland. All-natural doesn't necessarily mean a whole lot, but their story does explain what they believe. Plus, they offer several organic varieties, and that's what I got. The price was definitely comparable to organic meat - a pretty good value. Around here, they're only sold at Walmart; check the bottom of the site for where you can find them near you.

They have a lot of tasty recipes on their website, and I'd like to share one.

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
