Okay - this one was definitely a winner. If I do say so myself...and the proof was in the husband going back for seconds (my usual food-hit/miss barometer!). Even the kids scoffed it (another win/lose measure). The beauty of this is you can throw everything in one dish and then into the oven and forget about it while you do more important things - like surf pinterest, flamenco dancing or ahem, REAL work!
