I had to used canned peppers and ground cinnamon because that is what I had on hand. It smelled so good while simmering on the stove. It looked really good too, UNTIL I added the breadcrumbs. Everyone agreed that it looked gross BUT they ate it, and even had seconds!! I was afraid to would be too spicy for some family members, but it wasn't at all. I served this over brown rice with roasted asparagus on the side.

My DBF went crazy over this dish. I made mine into a burrito with some black beans and avocado-YUM!!! This didn't have too much heat, but had a nice flavor from the spices. I had to use a canned tomato as we are have a tomato scare in the states right now. I also just realized that I forgot to add the breadcrumbs, however my sauce had a nice thickness and I didn't need it. I made this for the ZWT 4 .
