Most of the recipes we feature on our blog are ones Olivia has developed or used and once and a while I throw an old favorite in for fun. Last week Olivia broke her foot and her time spent creating in the kitchen is very limited for a while, so today I'm sharing with you a recipe I found at www.delish.com recently and tried it on my husband. It is an excellent recipe and because there are only two of us being able to reheat the food for a second day is important to us. This one passed that test beautifully and was just as good the second day as it was the first. It is easy and very good. I had some enchilada sauce leftover so I served it on the side as a garnish and it was great. The second day I wanted to add a little moisture to the dish so after reheating, I served it with a dollop of sour cream on top. This is a great recipe and I think it is one your whole family will love.
