"This was delicious with mashed potatoes but next time I will serve it over egg noodles. The original recipe used just bell peppers but I think it is wonderful with other vegetables too. Recipe source: Bon Appetit (November 2005)"

<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>
