Many years ago, when I was doing a lot of cooking and my waist showed it, (not that it doesn’t now), I entered a cooking contest in San Antonio, Texas. This recipe won first place in the contest, and yes, there were other entries!

I have to say upfront that I never measure except with my eyes so I will do my best to estimate what you will need to do.
