I can't believe how easy this was to make. Great to serve when you're pressed for time. I made it exactly as written, it was so good, everyone enjoyed it. Will be making this again, thanks!

I love this easy recipe made with ingredients I almost always have on hand, the V8 juice certainly gives it a nice zing, next time I will cut back the amount of salt called for, 1/4 tsp would be plenty I think. It's a perfect recipe, and can be described in one word---YUM!
