Really tired of the ungrateful complainers. Don't use the recipe or improvise. Not everyone is a health freak and it is not all about you. You could always go PAY for your weight support. Do you pay your bills? I am so grateful for this site. I've lost 20 lbs, where I was never able to before. - 2/13/13

This is fast, tasty and much healthier than the fast food I was eating after working a 12 hour shift. I understand people wanting fresh from scratch foods. When gone for 14 hours (that's counting travel time) it's either a quick meal or fast food. Thanks for including these kind of dishes. - 2/13/13

I know grumbling isn't productive, but there have been more recipes lately that support products that are processed and not fresh--I want a recipe that I can make from scratch so I know what's in it. Guess Spark People needs to pay their bills if they need to keep pushing these products. :( - 2/13/13
