ummmmm......YUM!
We make them too! They are super yummy!
Hi Amy, it's Jason's Jennifer. Sorry about the Genevieve confusion. These Chicken Squares look awesome. I think we are going to have to give them a try soon. Also, your book of the month (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) is wonderful. My book club read it last month.
Jenn made these for me last night, and they were fantastic. She swapped the pimentos for black olives, which was tasty.
