Hey, I just snipped a whole handful of cilantro and was wondering what to do with it...
if ya cut out the peas and use a good veggie like broccoli or corn, i bet you'll like it a lot better!
I made this and it was fantastic! Def. a crowd pleaser. . .ALL 4 of my kids ate it and wanted seconds! That like never happens. So thanks! =) I made dinner rolls in my bread maker to go with it, so I totally felt like a Martha Stewart momma (except she would have made the rolls from scratch).
I made it and it is yum!
Wow! I'm surprised you tried it...and that all of these people like it! That makes me feel so good.
it was super yummy!! my dinner swap group loved it!!
