This was a fantastic recipe! DH absolutely loved it. My husband isn't all that fond of leftovers, but he does eat what I put in his lunch box. With this meal, he ate it for lunch and then asked if we could eat what was left for dinner that same day! Wow! That's a HUGE compliment coming from my husband!
Makes enough for 6, through the recipe claims 4. We definitely got more than 4 servings out of it!
