This is a great side dish or just to make as a snack.
Whatever you call it, after 5 minutes it’ll be gone.
I practically live in the kitchen, but I never know whether my family will like what I make. Some recipes are an immediate hit, like this one. It should be added to your recipe notebook for regular rotation.
While I was at it I planned your next Friday night dinner.
