(Mary's Notes: 3/15/08 Supper. My husband went crazy for this recipe which really surprised me as he isn't one for a sweet recipe which this one

definitely is! A bit too sweet for my taste. Very easy to make and quick,especially if you do all the prep ahead and organize it in your working area. WW points are based on the products used/changes made. MasterCook
