I even put the meat in the tote frozen a lot of the time. This recipe is the top right tote. I hid mushrooms in this recipe as well. My mushroom hater had no clue. He isn’t allergic, he just doesn’t care for them. I also used frozen cauliflower and kept it in the tote. I broke up the cauliflower before I put it in the skillet. I wanted it to absorb as much flavor as possible.
