This is an old family favorite. It’s so simple I often feel guilty claiming it’s really a “recipe.” I brought it to a baby shower last weekend and was reminded that many of the best things in life are simple: dinner with family, a warm cup of soup when it’s chilly outdoors, beautiful music, a sunset, a newborn child, a smile. Hug your loved ones and enjoy a simple dinner together this week.
