I found this recipe a few month’s ago in our local paper in the cooking section. I held on to the recipe since the thought of balsamic vinegar and maple syrup together intrigued me. I’m glad I finally dug this recipe out of my massive stack of “try me”! This was so delicious–good enough to serve for a dinner party! My husband and I both enjoyed the egg noodles. It brought back memories of childhood dinners.
