This was a little time consuming but not difficult to make. I fed my husband and four teenage sons with this and it was a big hit. I was doubtful however that they would like the unusual combination of flavors but it was a real winner. My boys are begging me to make this again really soon. Thanks Peace for such a wonderful and unique recipe. We'll be having this again soon :> missviolinist -
