This is really good! After assembling it I let it cook on the stove over low heat for a couple hours and it really thickened up nicely. I did omit the green pepper per personal choice as well as the bay leaf and used red beans instead of kidney as it was what I had on hand. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Made for PAC Fall 08
