Chez doesn't often pick as his star a veggie side dish over a meat (or most certainly the dessert) but on November 11th, during a meal that served to honor the Blue Ribbon Dishes that have made Chez so very happy... and very full, this was the winner. Nutritious and tasty... what else is there to consider. Enjoy!
