I prepared this recipe for Thanksgiving and absolutely loved it. It really does need to be served while hot! Makes a very attractive, appetizing dish.

This was excellent! A very BIG hit at Thanksgiving! I used fresh broccoli, which we prefer, and omitted the grated orange peel due to lack of time, and everyone LOVED it!!
