This is one of those recipes that a friend of mine would always make for me or when I was coming to dinner. She would even send some on holidays to the office for our marketing get-together. It was absolutely one of the best things she ever cooked and she was quite a cook and musician. Finally she broke down and told me how unbelieveably easy it was and I couldnt believe it. Its so simple and delicious, you'll want to do it right now! Its also great for cooking with kids. It gives everybody something to do. The best part is its absolutely delicious, horribly easy and virtually NO CLEANUP! What more could you want. Voila!
