During the Holiday season, I was lucky that my friend at work Jenny had to bring in something for her department's holiday breakfast. She was so pleased with how her dish turned out that she called me and told me I had to come try some. I was so impressed, I made it for my family the following weekend. It's a keeper for sure...Thanks Jenny!
