Amazingly simple and so good. I ate so much I had a tummy ache! You have to try this!!! From Everyday Food Magazine November 2007. Served with a green salad and foccacia bread. This will make everyone think you were in the kitchen for hours. **One caution the recipe states to 145 degrees, but we did not find this quite done enough for us**
