So this recipe is super simple and its one of my favorites especially around the holidays. I made the dish for Thanksgiving. I wanted to make one of my favorite recipes that my mom taught me since I was celebrating the day with my Mervin family. I love adding some sweetness to every meal, I’m even thinking of making it for Christmas!
