If you are entertaining this holiday season here is a great recipe to make and serve on a cold night. If you are entertaining at home with just your family, this will be something special and different and not too difficult to make. Serve it warm with big tortilla chips.
I like it with a side of red wine and a Lifetime Holiday movie!
