I was leary about the flavor of this. I was expecting it to be bland, but it was exactly the opposite. So full of flavor - and such a wonderful flavor. I made this a couple weeks ago when my in-laws were visiting and it was a huge hit. I've been dreaming of it ever since. It's time to make it again. Definately a keeper. Thanks so much.

This was very tasty and so simple to make. I had to cook mine a little longer that the stated time, but we really enjoyed this with our grilled fish dinner. Thanks for posting.
