This was a hit at our house! I made a few modifications w/seasoning but overall it was tasty. Sure beats those frozen things you buy at the grocery store. Have made this 2x in the last week (per request of the teenagers in the house)

The kids really liked these. I froze them and they reheated nicely both in the oven and in the microwave. They did not become chewy at all.
