“As a native NYer relocated to French Quebec, the discovery of this morning morsel was very appealing though daunting because of the calories slathered on by the pork. This recipe is a lighter version of this "traditional Quebecquois" breakfast meal and I think more tasty, quick and easy to make. Served on toast, this savory pate is a meal in itself without the extra pounds.”
