    Luckily, it seemed to have passed the test! I’m thrilled because I happened to enjoy it a lot too. We had leftovers and they were great reheated for lunch the next day! In fact, Justin was a little bummed because I laid claims on the leftovers before he could take them to work with him!

    Now that’s how you really know your family loves the meal you made! Battle of the leftovers!
