I was wanting to make my honey a football game snack, but was limited by ingredients I had on hand. He is crazy about grilled cheese sandwiches, so I made him this. As I handed him his plate, he said, "This is for both of us, right? I can't eat all of this." I convinced him that it was all his, and he started eating, barely coming up for air!! I asked him if he had had enough, and he shook his head with a grin. So I made him another plate full, and it disappeared as quickly as the first, and he told me I could make this for him any time I want to. For such a simple dish, it's delicious.
