I left out the onion and my kids went wild for this! On the sweet side, chock full of things they like, yum! I didn't have any quick rice so I parboiled orzo and put that in its place. I think rice would be better, but the orzo was fine.

This was good but nothing spectacular. I left out the red pepper and added red pepper flakes instead for a little kick of flavor.
