Introduction

This is not a two person recipe, but we like the recipe a lot and the left overs are easy lunches. Chopping the toppings takes most of the time. This is not a two person recipe, but we like the recipe a lot and the left overs are easy lunches. Chopping the toppings takes most of the time.
