Glad she likes it. In my former restaurant this was THE favorite with our young customers.
A HUGE thumbs up from my daughter. "It's tastes just like at the restaurant!" From her that's a serious compliment. Really, it's quite good and very easy to make. It even went to school in the lunchbox yesterday. I wonder what the other kids had to say about that.
