Bring forth the Holy Hand Grenade! September is here, and we’re cooking up our 2nd Movie of the Month: Monty Python and the Holy Grail! I’m a HUGE Monty Python junky, so I’m super excited for this menu. What better way to start it off than with holy hand grenades?

You can throw them at your enemies if you like, but we recommend eating them.

The result: a feast for kings, no imagination necessary! 🙂
