I chanced upon this recipe and immediately wanted 

to try it out. It isn't winter here, but it sure looks

like comfort food and something that even I, the non-cook,

can whip up in the kitchen. 

Am thinking of adding some sausages into the mix or 

meatballs. What do you think? 

Happy cooking folks!
