MOCK CHOPPED LIVER- WALNUTS AND PAREVE
This is my grandma She She's mock chopped liver. It's incredibly simple and very tasty. My whole family enjoys it. I like this version a lot more than the mock chopped liver made with garbanzo beans and/or green beans (even though that version is healthier). Makes a terrific appetizer.
