How to impress at a Christmas Potluck-by Jessica

Occasionally, we like to use this blog to share recipes that have some connection to Jackson Hole. This recipe is from long-time Jackson Hole resident Larry Wilde who owned a successful business in Jackson called Creekside Deli. Larry shared his love of cooking with residents and tourists and this recipe is a delightful sample from his collection.

Jackson Hole Winter Activities-by Jessica

[caption id="attachment_885" align="alignnone" width="480"] Me and my dad in my childhood front yard, which is behind the Flat Creek Inn. Three-wheeling in the wintertime is not recommended! They are illegal now anyway. : )[/caption] Ahhhh, Jackson Hole winter memories. It’s funny that, as someone who spent my childhood in Jackson Hole, I never picked up downhill skiing. When I did attempt it, I found myself too often either getting my skis crossed or doing the splits.  And I never maste...
