Today I would like to share a recipe with you that I received many years ago. More than 25 years ago.
A friend of mine, Cindy and I did Once a Month cooking together. We would get together and make a menu, shop and then have one big cook day for a month of dinners.
Cindy shared this recipe and it has been a long time favorite. I lost the recipe for a while but I would make it from my memory. It came from a magazine article but I never knew which magazine. (If anyone is reading this and knows who the credit should go to let me know!)
It’s a very easy recipe whether you make it ahead and freeze it or make it day of your meal.
I still make it though we are empty nesters. Let me know if you make it!
