We have 3 teens, so this recipe is meant to feed all of them. Let me tell you, they are hungry! Most recipes I find these days are usually for fewer servings or to feed a family with small kids. My kids eat like adults & my hubs is a big guy. So I’m cooking usually cooking 6-8 servings on a nightly basis. Those of you with large families can relate, I’m sure.
