Made this last week, ate it for 3 days after and it got better each day! Thanks for the recipe! Nana and papa are coming to visit next week and I'm going to make it again for them : )
ReplyDeleteWe TORE THIS UP! I don't even like sweet and sour and we LOVED this. I made it to humor my family and then it was me that scarfed the leftovers. Of course, if it comes from Carrie's kitchen, it's going to be delish!
