Introduction
I made this for dinner tonight with stuff I had in the house. I decided to try out the Sparkpeople recipe calculator, as it came out pretty well and I'll probably make it again. After all, if I enter the ingredients here, I won't have to enter them all individually in the nutrition tracker the next time! I made this for dinner tonight with stuff I had in the house.
