\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hosting made easy? There\u2019s a recipe for that.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing better than inviting a few friends over for a nice dinner. Unless, of course, you end up spending so much time preparing it that you\u2019re completely drained by the time they show up at your house. With that in mind, I give you this week\u2019s recipe suggestion: Autumn Hash<\/strong><\/a>. A new twist on an old classic, this shepherd\u2019s pie 2.0 will not only wow your guests, it\u2019ll actually leave you time to enjoy their company.<\/p>\n

The recipe calls for all sorts of yummy ingredients, including Canadian Havarti. And if that wasn\u2019t enough to tempt you, it also pairs beautifully with a number of delightful wines. For those who love a nice white, I suggest a full-bodied 2008 Napa Valley Chardonnay from Chappellet<\/strong><\/a>. If red better suits your palate, go for a nuanced Burgundy such as a Gabriel D’ardhuy Bourgogne Pinot Noir<\/strong><\/a> 2009.<\/p>\n
