Jane got this recipe from Kim Douglas who later became Kim McLean. Jane worked with Kim at her first job on Howard Ave at Toledo Scale in Windsor. They were both in the electronics department repairing printed circuit boards. Kim was a really good cook and prided herself on healthy recipes. Cute story, Kim married Wayne McLean who also worked at Toledo Scale and they all remained friends for many, many years. This recipe reminds me that it's time to get back in touch with old friends.
