Good flavor but I felt like it needed some texture. I will probably add some chopped pecans or something next time. My husband loved it though!

My 5 yr old is a picky vegetable eater but this side dish disappeared from his plate and he's asking for me to make it again!

This is absolutely delicious! My husband was actually licking the dish and my 4 year old gobbled it up. Very refreshing side dish, would go great with most anything.
