Shopping List December 8th

This week’s chef notes:

• Kielbasa sausage is an ingredient in the Hungarian Lentil Stew this week. If you’d like to make a vegetarian (or vegan) stew, feel free to omit. Or, If you’re not a fan of smoked kielbasa, swap in your favorite substitute: Sweet or spicy Italian, Spanish chorizo, or even bratwurst would all work well here.

• White button mushrooms or cremini are fine for the lasagna, but additional flavor and texture will come from adding wild mushrooms like chanterelles.
