Notes
Best served warm. Pairs well with roasted meats and can be a light lunch with bread. To store leftovers, keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days or freeze for 2-3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C). For added flavor, sauté some garlic or onions before mixing. Consider adding crispy bacon bits or using fresh green beans (blanch them first).
