It's quick and tasty( if you notice I always let you use your own judgement on salt/pepper...we have to watch our intake) you can season it to your taste....my family loves highly season food...I cook a lot of "Cajun and Creole style foods....
This recipe is especially for "Brian" better known as the "Jeannie"s Ever-ready Man the Rock".

  1. Thankyou Nee,that looks absolutely delicious.Brian laughed to see a recipe just for him,the world's fussiest eater.
    He hates butter,he hates spices and condiments.If he thinks there is a spice in something he'll push it away and won't eat it.
    He's nightmare to cook for.
    We might get away with this recipe.He likes steak and green peppers.I'll give it a go,thanks for the help.

    I'll chat tonight if you're on line.We have to go out to dinner,but we won't be very late.

  8. I'm trying to remember what that lawyer did first.I can't say what I called him(too nasty).I don't want to say where he grabbed me.(too personal)Oh well I'll sort it out.
