chiliettes

Recipe by

This is a family recipe that all of my kids and their friends love still today. When they were all smaller, we had this at least once a week and never got tired of. My oldest son still asks for them every time he is invited to eat dinner with us and he is 48 years old. All of them taught their wives to make this and serve to their families.
