CRITIC COMMENTS: 
Me:  I received a similar recipe from a former co-worker several years ago.  I couldn't find where I put that, so I had to find another recipe and I had been craving this for a while now.  I have to say I loved it!  It was exactly what I had remembered it to taste like.  We will be having left overs!

Husband:  Thought it was really good.  Even though he wasn't a fan the first time I made it (from a different recipe)
