Sounds delicious. Is this your recipe or one from the internet? Just curious, thanks.
ReplyDeleteMy Greek to Me recipes are from a book given to me and writen by the ladies of my husband's family church. I put my own twist on their recipes when cooking for my family. I talk about the book in this post from April.
