I set out to make this as a side..when all was said and done, however, we could each only eat half. It's now become a "main". —inpatskitchen

I think I get my love for food and cooking from my mom, who was an amazing cook. She would start baking and freezing a month before Christmas in order to host our huge open house on Christmas afternoon. I watched and I learned...to this day I try not to procrastinate when it comes to entertaining. My cooking style is pretty much all over the place, although I'm definitely partial to Greek and Italian cuisine. Oh yes, throw a little Cajun in there too!

It's in the oven now and smells wonderful. I had some filling leftover and I think that's going to make a wonderful omelet tomorrow. Thank you Pat.
