I got the recipe from a book I read a few weeks ago. It is "Deep Dish" by Mary Kay Andrews. By the way it's a great book!! Anyway this recipe was in the book story line. They put the recipe in the back of the book so thought I would try it. The kids eating the cake are my Great Nephew David and Great Niece Kighley.

ReplyDeleteWell, that's different! I see the kids like it. Really moist with tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteI forget which book it is by Mary Kay Andrews but it has a chicken salad recipe that is to die for. I make it all the time and people constantly ask me for the recipe. It's on her website.
