We loved this ... I made enough for just the 2 of us, but this is one of those meals where you really wish there were leftovers!!! Lacking carrots, I though about subbing zucchini, but decided just to go with the onions, red pepper and snowpeas, perfect as was. I did use a tiny bit of bacon, and added some shrimp, just a few, more for DH, who fancied them, the dish is great with or without! So simple but really good, definitely a keeper, thank you BusyBee!!! Made for PAC Fall 2012
