This was excellent! Easy, quick, wonderful! KEEPER! Pushed for time, I mixed all the ingredients in a mason jar and put it in the frig overnight. About 1 hr before I started cooking (after work)the next day, I took it out of the frig to "warm up". Cook the recipe according to directions - perfect!

I live in Victoria, British Columbia. I am happily married to the most wonderful guy on earth:) Aside from being a wanna be chef, I am also a wanna be children's book author, and a famous crooner in the shower aside from being a frustrated painter/illustrator and a real trying hard golfer.
I love experimenting with different dishes from countries all over the world. I am constantly experimenting with new recipes and different types of fresh herbs and spices.
I collect cookbooks and magazines. Most of the recipes I've posted and I will be posting are from the different magazines such as Bon Appetite, Chatelaine, Cucina, Hello, Home Maker and Gourmet. I will also try to post recipes that I've grown up with as well as those that came from family and friends.
