    Hi there! I have just discovered your blog and i am so excited to try out some of these recipes. How many servings do your typical recipes yield? I am specifically interested in making the coriander feta polenta from your dinner in August but didn’t see a note on how many people that recipe served.

    Thanks for your help!
