Let me just preface this by telling you it will knock your socks right off your feet! You have never tasted anything like it before...I can guarantee it! My sister-in-law Thelma found it somewhere...and for that I will be eternally grateful. Hope this helps with the morning sickness Erin! :) Sorry...no picture...lame-o.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I can't wait to make it!
Sounds so yummy and yet looks so intense...I'm sure I will love it. I'm just too tired right now to think of making two things for one meal. Listen to me! I'm such a complainer. I'll be more positive.
Is that in your cookbook?? Looks familiar--and sounds absolutely heavenly as far as chicvken salad goes. Have a BLAST with all your family--will miss you!!!
It's in there. Try it...you will flip!
