  4. This was delicious. I added a bit more olive oil so I could saute onions and red/green bell peppers with it, and served it with rice. I thought it was great! My kids didn't agree...but they think veggies might kill them :) So they just ate rice.

  5. This was delicious and is going into my permanent recipe binder. Would you mind if I borrowed your picture for a post I'm writing on my blog? Every other week I'm posting a "life" update with a spotlight recipe I found across the web. I forgot to take a picture of the meal before it was gobbled up. I will of course post a link back to your site either way so any interested readers can find your recipe but I'd love to borrow your pic. My email is barklesswagmore@live.com
