Hey, this looks intriguing. I think I did something like this years ago, but I can't remember. So . . . I copied it and printed it out! :-)

When I'm watching the kids next week, this might be fun to try out - - - looks like it's good for lots of hungry mouths.

Oh, dear! The copy and pasting didn't work very well, and the amounts and the ingredients are all mixed up. *sad face*

Oh, well. It sure looks good on "paper." :-)
