Comments
I rushed prep for this so it’s not quite as pretty as it usually is. Sorry about that! Once upon a time someone on an online forum asked for recipe testers. Of all the recipes I tried, this was the one that we all deemed a keeper, with quite a few modifications and a rename. It’s a great, hearty, and filling dish. We find that it serves four quite nicely, but sometimes the three of us fight over that last piece!
If you’re the creator reading this, I’d love a link to your book so I can add it to the post.
