I came up with this several years ago, when trying to change things up a little. You know the grind...we as cooks usually keep certain dishes in the rotation, then we are ready for a change. This was LONG before the internet, so I winged it! My family enjoyed it. Depending on the spices and herbs I put in it, depends on what cuisine it goes with. Go ahead and make it your own!
