    Absolutely delicious! Huge hit as a Thanksgiving appetizer served with crackers. Made a double batch to serve 17 people. My mistake, not nearly enough. Next time will triple or quadruple.

    This was excellent! I added some diced red, yellow and orange pepper and some diced water chestnuts. YUMMY! This will definitely be a regular at my house.
