I was at a loss for a recipe for Tasty Tuesday today.  I hadn’t had a chance to even think about something to cook… this weekend was crazy.  I was on the phone after lunch with one of our branch managers and he told me what he was having to eat… I asked him if he wanted to be Tasty Tuesday’s recipe.  He was even nice enough to send me a second picture, after I declared the first picture to be too blurry!  This sounds delicious and I am definitely making this soon…. Enjoy.  Thanks Bart!  You’re the best!
