My whole family realy enjoyed these. I used lean ground beef and also chopped up some red pepper I had that needed to be used. We also left out the peas. Otherwise, followed the recipe as written. The only complaint I received, was I didn't make enough. :-) Thanks for sharing. Made for PRMR-2010

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
