We ate haggis! {& loved it!}

So, basically on a dare, I had to eat haggis the other day.  Then, because I stomached it {no pun intended}, Josh begged me to make Balmoral Chicken, aka haggis-stuffed, bacon-wrapped chicken.  In all honesty, it was totally delicious.  Yeah, you heard me, dee-licious.  The garlic-lemon roasted

asparagus was amazing, as well.  {side note, out of frugality, I did not make the whisky sauce…sorry, everyone.}

For the record, 3 of us have had asparagus, spinach, green beans, and broccoli this week.  I’m a little proud, I’ll admit it.

I linked to Full Plate Thursday over at Miz Helen’s.

    Was this seriously your first taste of haggis?!?! I’m going to have to try this one. My boys LOVE haggis.

    Blair, I know, I know…I was really grossed out by the whole idea, but Joe McGarry wouldn’t come off it, so he brought it to a play grp for me to try- I literally ate from his sons’ dishes. ;) That was fine…this, however, I really liked, which is fitting since it’s way worse for you! ;)

    I missed something…what is haggis?

    I’m impressed! Not about the haggis, but the veggies (just kidding, well sorta). But good job on both parts!

    I had to come over here and look at this. :)

    My husband’s stepdad is Scottish and he keeps saying that Haggis is wonderful and that it’s the Offal parts of the sheep and not the “Awful” parts, as I keep insisting. I expect every time that we are invited to dinner that he will be serving this. I have jokingly told him that if he plans to serve us haggis some evening that he should make sure and have a REALLY long cocktail hour and have plenty of Laphroig. I’m impressed with your bravery! It looks delicious but I remain a bit skeptical. Thank you for sharing it today!!
