This is a recipe that I devised many years ago using several different recipes. It can be served as a main meal or used to stuff mushrooms as an appetizer

I made this over the weekend for fathers' day dinner. It was a big hit. I added the juice of 1 lemon and added 1 tsp. of cayenne pepper instead of the hot pepper sauce. Everyone wanted the recipe! Read More

This was very tasty with a bit of a kick and came together quickly. I added the juice of 1 lemon about 8 oz. of sauteed mushrooms (just because I wanted to use them up before going bad)and substituted 1/2 tsp. cayenne for the hot pepper sauce. Also I did not have a bell pepper so I used diced roasted red peppers in it's place. I will make this again. Thanks for the post. Read More

This is a fantastic recipe that has also been in my family for years. I use Old Bay Seasoning instead of cayenne or hot sauce to taste and I add the juice of 1 lemon. I saute my green bell pepper and onion in olive oil until tender before adding to the other ingredients. You'll find that gives the dish a blast of flavor. Read More
