I found this recipe in the 11/2005 issue of "Womans Day" and just happened to run across it posted here. It's very easy to prepare & always a hit with family & friends. I serve mine with the main course, just plain from a pretty dish & it always goes fast! (can be made up to 1 week ahead.Refrigerate covered)

Hi, I live in Hot Springs, AR, but originally hail from the great windy city, Chicago. I have a house full of animals, all rescues, 8 parrots, 4 dogs and a cat. I am passionate about animals, especially ones that have been abused and neglected. If I had the money, I would buy a farm and fill it with animals that needed homes. I've been this way since I was a child and it seems I have passed my passion on to my daughter. How my poor husband puts up with us I don't know, buy he's a great guy and pitches right in with all the animals. He's a chef at a local resort (and an assistant zoo keeper when he gets home...lol).
