2011 was a great year for us at The Organized Cook but we want 2012 to be even better! Part of our resolution is helping to get more and more families back to the dinner table by making it easier than ever on mom.

2011 brought many new friends into my life. Recently, a few of them came over for coffee, which soon approached lunch. What better time to try out a new recipe on new friends?
In fact, many who work with me will tell you that my kitchen is my office, and I love to cook and experiment during work meetings. So, anyone who attends one of my working meetings will end up being a guinea pig for a new recipe at some point. Today’s new recipe- Bacon, Spinach and Pear Sandwich with Cranberries and Red Wine Sauce I believe got the thumbs-up for approval.
