I was reading the Martha Stewart magazine on a flight back from New York to Miami after having met my boyfriend's family for the first time. They loved me so much that they invited me back up to Boston for Thanksgiving but of course the panic and terror set in. "What will I bring to the table?" (no pun intended!) After seeing this recipe in the magazine I decided to immediately go to the grocery store and tried making it. It was a complete success and I am so thrilled at how easy it was to make!
