My mother is part Portuguese. This recipe came from her mother my grandmother. We would make this every year for "Fat Tuesday" as a family until the passing of my mother. Now I make it by myself every year. It always makes me think of her & cry, but I know she is looking down on me & saying "Good job Kit" I plan to pass this recipe down to my kids & hopefully one day my grandkids...
