I rarely buy magazines anymore, especially food magazines but this one seem to have a lot of recipes that I wanted to try. I bought and am so glad I did. Tsis recipe is amazing. We loved it. Served along with salad- it was a nice light meal.

It baked up so nice and beautiful and the kids loved it.
