Personal Notes:
I haven't made this but it looked good. Let me know if you make it before I do.
Naturally you would serve this with the best baguette you can find and a lovely crisp green salad with arugula and avocados.
Suzanne made really great Clam Chowder and Corn Chowder at Celebrations to Go.
