This was really good and very easy. The perfect comfort food for a cold day! I left out the crushed red pepper to adjust for my young daughter's tastes. It was still just a little too spicy for her so I put a second can of tomato sauce in the finished pot, which worked out very well. The entire family enjoyed it so I will definitely be making it again.
