Notes

GREAT TASTING! THE MEDLY OF VEGETABLES MIXED WITH THE PILAF GIVES IT AN EXTRODANARY TASTE. I HAD ALWAYS USED A BREAD BASED STUFFING IN MY RECIPIES, BUT WITH THIS, YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO GET AWAY FROM ALL THAT BREAD. I HAD EXPERIMENTED WITH PUTTING DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS TOGETHER AND THIS IS THE ONE I THOUGHT WAS GREAT!
