This is another good one from Better Homes and Gardens, but I added the mushrooms and bamboo shoots and decided not to add the sliced carrots (1 cup thinly sliced). The great thing about this recipe, is you can add/substitute other ingredients of your choice. Enjoy!2 Ingredient Recipes
My mother is a reader of Woman's Day Magazine (whose recipes I usually love) and she passed on these 2 ingredient recipe cards to me. Sure, some of them are a little odd and I will probably never, ever attempt, but there were a few that immediately grabbed my attention and I can't wait to try out! (Pineapple with coconut sorbet...:DROOL:)
