Yummy Weekend-Recipe from Germany

BY SYBILLE C. DENNINGER

It's only Wednesday but since we are supposed to get another snow storm I want to post this luscious recipe in time for the weekend so you can go shopping for ingredients. This is a perfect Saturday evening dinner because the left-overs are ideal for Sunday breakfast, quickly heated in the microwave. My husband and I enjoy it as a special treat on occasion. Like on the occasion of yet another snowy, nasty weekend nobody needs ;-) What else can you do but stay home and nibble? Ingredients can be changed according to taste, like adding bacon or ham, and substituting the mushrooms for firmly boiled, sliced potatoes. Anything goes!

Guten Appetit <3
