This recipe comes from one of the best cooks I know, my grandmother. I often wonder if this is where my love of cooking and cooking for other people comes from. She is a wonderfully strong and incredible woman. When I set out on my own in college, she gave me a collection of all her recipes and gathered recipes from friends, neighbors and relatives. I love to peruse through them just to find something unique that I have never made before and that is where I came across this recipe. Enjoy!
