Reaction
A VERY pleasant surprise. It has become my new comfort food. It is warm, filling and very savory (especially if you add the soy sauce on top, trust me!) When we go visit my grandparents in two weeks I plan  on making this for them.  I think it is a great way to sneak in veggies as well! Just chop them up even smaller or into a puree.
