***Yum, Yum, Yum!!!!  I cannot say enough good things about this recipe.  First of all, the recipe was absolutely no fuss!!!  Just throw everything in the pan and sprinkle with EVOO and salt & pepper.  That's not hard.  The most exciting part about making this recipe was cooking with leeks.  They're pretty cool!  Looks like a huge green onion (scallion), but with a much milder taste.  Can't wait to find more recipes for leeks.  Try it out and let me know what you think!
