    Very Good
    This was delicious! However, spicy hot and my husband and I like spicy food. I think maybe my paprika was the spicy version. Next time, I will add the chili flakes and paprika after I taste it. Flavor was delicious though and I added some skim milk to tone it down. Ate it up! - 9/13/15
