Until the hubs and I experienced it ourselves, I did not know that you are supposed to make dinners for your friends who have just had a baby. My husband and I were overwhelmed by the outpouring of friends that came and went those first few weeks. With our own family hundreds of miles away, it was amazing. Live and learn. This was a dish I had during those first few weeks and decided to make it for another couple who had a newborn a couple weeks ago. Enjoy!
