Hi, Lisa...sounds amazing and pretty easy. Thanks for sharing. I'm not much of a cook, but I could make this.
Looks delicious, Lisa. I always felt it was important to keep kosher for Christmas!
Hi Lisa. Gabe is just too funny. That recipe looks mouth watering. Thanks.
Looks gorgeous! Maybe it will help me to intice a kosher friend to visit, but I might have to serve it on paper plates.
