honestly did NOT expect this reaction… but here we are 😄
I have a niece who is famously picky. She’ll usually take two bites, declare she’s “full,” and move on. Doesn’t matter what it is — homemade, restaurant, dessert, savory — she barely touches it. So when I made this, I assumed it would be the same story.
I was wrong. Completely wrong.
She didn’t just like it… she polished off three-quarters of it in one night 😳
My husband and I were left negotiating over the last quarter like it was gold. We ended up splitting it between us while watching her go back for yet another bite.
Then came the moment that sealed its ranking in our house forever:
She looked at me and said, “Aunt… can we have this every week please?” 🥹💛
If a child who barely eats anything asks for seconds — and then requests it weekly — you already know this recipe is something special. It’s comforting, flavorful, and somehow hits that perfect balance where even the pickiest eaters can’t resist.
This is the kind of dish that: ✔️ Wins over picky kids
✔️ Leaves adults fighting for leftovers
✔️ Gets requested again before the plates are even cleared
✔️ Instantly earns a permanent spot in the meal rotation
I’m officially ranking this as a top-tier family favorite — the kind of recipe you save, share, and make again and again without changing a thing.
If you love recipes that bring everyone to the table (and keep them there), this one deserves a spot at the top of your list.

Tell me where this would rank in your house — #1, #2, or weekly must-make?
