With this sauce, I once prepared it with shredded turkey as well. I would have my meal ready a day in advance so that when I got home from work, I just needed to heat it up. My son was 12 years old and it was a struggle to get him to eat. That day, when I got home from work, I was surprised to find that he and one of my nephews who was visiting had eaten all the food. My husband and I were left with nothing. My late father used to say, 'Make that meal more often,' 😂😂. So, here's to my son (Roge) and my nephew Miguel, this meal is for them.
