This was good and easy. I had to omit the green pepper (DH's irrational fear of veggies), but it was still great. I love having one in the freezer for next week. Many thanks for sharing!

I love food! I collect cookbooks and recipes and read them the way most people read novels. I have no children but I have two cats who also love to eat. I am also a movie buff and one of my biggest pet peeves is when people talk during a movie!
