Great combo of ingredients, can't wait to try!


Hi Vickie! This really sounds good. It seems you get a lot of bang for your cooking minutes in this one! Great flavors going on here. I'll have to make this one for my daughters it's sure to be a hit. I think this would be tasty on a home made chiabata roll. I'll have to pair up with my husband on this one. He's awesome at artisan bread baking


I know I will love this, favorite combinations here.
