"From The Southern Living Cookbook. The allspice and orange zest gives this an unusual flavor, but I cut WAY back on the orange zest, adding maybe about 1 tsp. Also I used olive oil instead of butter. At serving time, I added cornstarch to the liquid in the pan and made a gravy to serve on the side."

I am a preschool teacher in Florida, here since marrying my hubby in Sept of '04. I have a stepdaughter. No kiddos of our own unless you count those with fur :-) We have 2 cats and 2 dogs who think they are cats. We are inovoled with our church and with our local American Legion post, where I cook breakfast once a month for the community, so I am always looking for new and fun breakfast/brunch ideas.
