This was in a Jr League of Roanoke Valley, Va.cookbook and it impressed me; I decided to give it a try. It has enough of spicy and savory and sweet that it balances it our beautifully.. I drained everything real well and served it with Indian flat bread, nachos, and small pitas. It was a real hit! This CAN'T be made much ahead of time or else you will have a mess!
