It is hailing, raining and snowing tonight. A great night for comfort food. Thought I would post a recipe, so like usual, I know where to find it if needed. Greta has the most sophisticated palette in our house. (seriously, no kiddie food for her. She has been a foodie since 1 1/2) Greta likes this, and scarfs down 2 bowls with some toasted sourdough bread on the side. I found a recipe a while back that was pulled from some magazine. I modified it quite a bit to use what we had in the fridge so we can make it anytime. The smoked salmon tonight is courtesy of our pal Mark. You must really like us to share your salmon. So good. Many thanks for sharing...
