    This was a surprise hit with my family. I think because I left out the spinach:), and added a 2 T of ff sour cream and served it over rice. - 6/2/11

    Superb wholesome meal, with a slight spicy kick. So easy to prepare and make. You can even watch a short TV programme whilst it is cooking. - 9/5/10
