This homemade pâté is both delicious and highly nutritious. While it takes some time to prepare, the effort is well worth it. Once made, you'll have a meal-replacement pâté ready in your cupboard for those times when you can't cook, need a convenient lunch for work, or are traveling. Best of all, it doesn't require refrigeration when unopened.
