I made this yesterday using all fresh tomatoes, red bell pepper, small can tomato paste with water instead of sauce, plus 1/2 can Miller-lite. I added 3-1/2 pds. of jumbo shrimp pieces. I served it to my son and daughter-in-law and we enjoyed it very much. I put Tony's Creole Seasoning on the table and we spiced it up according to our preference. I will use this recipe again - definitely!
