i threw a “meat party” potluck last week.

my vegetarian boyfriend was out on tour with his band, so i figured i’d take the opportunity to satisfy my meaty cravings in one fell swoop with those of my friends who are also not vegetarian (although a few of them came by anyway).

i cooked up amy’s “pot roast for jack black” recipe and it was an enormous hit. it was a huge dish, and i literally had no leftovers after the party was over asside from a few spare carrots and potatoes.

yes, it is an incredibly funny read, and it can come across as just a joke book… but the recipes really are tried and true hits, and her advice on entertaining is also actually quite practical.

enjoy!
