I found this recipe in the monthly Hannaford flyer and it was a perfect part of our meal planning for Baby's high school graduation. I made a veggie version and a meat version to meet the needs of our guests. It was also easy for the pickier eaters to weed out what they didn't want to eat. I am just disappointed I didn't make more because it was gone when I came home hungry after moving Baby out of his dorm room!
