This was an excellent, quick meal to put together. Both my boyfriend and I would give it more than five stars if we could! I served this with hot Italian sausage, which went perfectly because of the slight kick from the crushed red pepper. I am so glad I chose this for ZWT4 and can't wait to make it again!
