Always hits the spot


Okay this is an easy one, and one of my childhood favorites. It always hits the spot no matter what mood I'm in. Kids love it too. Luci kept begging for more plain yogurt to dip hers in. "Ougut, wite hewe" (yogurt, right here) she kept saying while pointing to a specific spot on her plate. We use yogurt instead of sour cream...less fat :) Jacob didn't think we'd be able to eat the whole pan. Oh but we did. Here we come second trimester little dean baby number two. Food is tasting so much better these days. Yes!
