Hi K! Utica Greens are my FAVORITE! I love the spicy ones you can buy at DiIorio's near the deli. I'm totally going to make these this weekend! Thanks for the inspiration! Debbie
ReplyDeleteGreat! I didn't know you could buy them at DiOrios, fantastic! I call them "the macaroni and cheese" of vegetables. I could eat them all week. I'm glad I could inspire you! xx, k
