So delicious! A bit on the sweet side, so we cut the honey down to 1 tablespoon and worked out just as well! YUM!!!

Oh my! That was so good! This recipe far exceeded my expectations and was a hit with my family and our company this evening. Thanks so much and I will definitely be keeping this one in the file and pulling it out often!

Oh, I did double it as it seemed like it was going to be lacking for the 4 people we had. Needless to say, we didn't have leftovers as we polished it of as our main course.

These are wonderful! I recently switched to eating raw/vegan, and I can't believe the options available. So tasty, with incredibly complex flavors.
