If you're like me and always looking for a great side dish that you can make ahead and freeze for another time, you are about to be so excited. I was brainstorming ideas that I could make ahead and freeze and came up with these Savory Leek Muffins.

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free!   Anyone who knows me in real life likely knows my top 3 favorite foods: dumplings, waffles and popcorn.

I'm not trying to be a snob or anything, but the magic of this recipe isn't just those flavor bomb mushrooms that cook alongside the brisket, which will make you wonder how it's possible for a simple mushroom to be so intensely rich and decadent.  The real secret of this brisket is the mushroom flavor that seeps into the meat!
