NOTES : "What isn't Irish in me is Bohemian. My Grandma Nowachek might wonder
about these Mexican main-dish rolls inspired by her kolaches, but I'm sure after she
tried one she would be pleased.
My son Tommy thought they were wonderful. And this is coming from the kid who told
me when he was six that he was "allergic to pinto and kidney beans!"
Freezes well.
