This recipe was so good that I made it twice in one week. The 2nd time when company was coming over and they took the recipe home with 'em. I enjoy giving the recipe out when someone else raves about it. I did add a couple of things of my own. Such as a few stocks of asparagus and extra spinach because I like the greens. Once everything was mixed I squeezed some fresh lemon on top also and it just brighten up the flavor. This recipe is a keeper.
