I had signed up to bring a side dish to a neighborhood potluck last night, but events conspired against me and it was suddenly an hour before the party and I hadn’t figured out what I was bringing–nor did I have time to run to the store. I scanned the pantry, scanned a few cookbooks, and put this together from a few different sources. It came out great!
