  1. Love this recipe. It’s really easy. I did add a lot more red pepper and salt because I halved the recipe and the amounts weren’t enough. Such a good side to some salmon.
     
  2. This was very good, I didn't have any sweet pepper in, so I didn't take a photo, but I will be making it again, we liked it a lot. Next time I will use the red pepper. I added a little shredded parmesan cheese at the end. thanks for sharing a good one!! — Jan 6, 2006 Here we are again, had red pepper this time and it does make a difference to the whole, quite delicious, thanks again, has become a regular, love the red pepper flakes too, just the right amount!
     
  3. Also reduced the oil a bit, and had to substitute chili pepper for red pepper flakes - satisfying side, and tasty! Thanks!
     
  4. I made a half recipe and reduced the oil quite a bit. It turned out well. Very visually appealing... attractive green and red colour combination! I think I'd like the garlic minced instead of slivered because it was a bit overpowering when I bit into a piece of garlic. Good recipe.
     
  5. OMG this was soooo good, i did add some fresh collard greens and a few mushrooms to it also. I will definitely make this again was a big hit
