I am basing this review on my wife and my portions, because I did not use the vodka in my kids recipe. I made the recipe exacttly as posted for us, but added a little more ham. The flavor and taste were FABULOUS.A real nice simple recipe that definately will be repeated again. Thans for this recipe . 5+++ stars !!! Made for Aus/Nz recipe swap#25.

I live in Keilor Downs, Victoria in Australia. I am a receptionist in Melbourne. My favorite cook books are anything Weight Watchers or Simply 2 good 2 be true also any muffin or scone cook books. I love cooking easy stuff but I love a challange ocasionaly on the weekends when i have a bit more time. My pet peeve is how much capsicum/bell peppers are in recipes now as i am elergic to them.
