    This looks delicious, Ashley! Minus the garlic for me, I like the simplicity of the ingredients and especially that touch of molasses. Down here in Florida, we like to replace molasses with our local dark cane syrup for a down home regional touch. I think this might be good with ground chicken too, don’t you think?
