To balance out the previous review...May 08, 2009By kianakelly
"I hadn't noticed the one star review before I made this, or I may not have tried it! How sad...this was fine...I probably wouldn't call it ""5 star"" under other circumstances, but to balance out the ""one star"" which this recipe in my opinion certainly did not merit, I decided to go for it... It was something I was able to throw together at the spur of the moment with leftovers, and I even left out onion...but when I gave it to my husband to try, he loved it... I think this is a simple, easy to change up recipe that definitely is something I feel great serving my family...maybe not at an elegant dinner party, but who knows?"
