Secret, I was just going to post this, but you beat me to it, so you win -- a review! I've made this several times over the past couple years. It's not fancy, but it's so easy to make, takes only one pan, and it tastes really great. I usually reduce the red pepper a bit to accomodate DangerBoy. Spicy food is to DangerBoy as Kryptonite is to Superman! The rest of us add a bit of Frank's Red Hot Sauce to our portions at the table.

Me and my boyfriend have been together for 11 years now. We live on 40 acres and have 6 dogs and 4 Tennessee Walkers. We both work a lot of hours so there is never enough time in a day to get everything done. I absolutely love the outdoors. I also enjoy lifting weights, reading and playing with all of my beautiful animals. I absolutely love, love and love to cook. I like to cook a variety of things and also like love to bake. I like to just get in the kitchen and experiment with different things. If something does not turn out for me such as pie crust or gravy I will keep trying until I can make it work. Only problem is, when I finally make it work it may not work again the time after that. It is fun though and I do consider myself a pretty good cook for the most part. I also love slow cooker recipes. Those are my most favorite in the winter months.
