This is delicious! I made this to go along with chicken eggrolls and it matched perfectly!! I didn't add any of the meats per DH's request, but did add a shredded carrot. I will be making this often! DH and I both loved it! (He had the leftovers for breakfast this morning!) Thanks Kitt! Another deelish recipe!!!
