Elizabeth's chicken liver pate- I have no "recipe" but I can tell you how I make the pate.  I sautee one onion, several grated cloves of garlic in a frying pan full of bacon fat (you can fry up 1-2 pieces of fatty bacon and reserve on the side.) Then after onion is lightly browned, I add in defrosted pasture-raised chicken livers (1/2lb- 1lb) I usually do a mini size version of this recipe

Watercress is a spring-time perrenial green leafy and member of the brassica (cabbage) family. It has a mildly spicy flavor and is a great mix-in to spring time salads! When the flavor is a little too strong for those first-timer tastebuds- a simple and nourishing soup is a great way to tone down the spice and tang of Watercress.
