I’m all about throwing together fast meals, and this looks like a super-easy winner. Plus, it sounds absolutely delicious. I think I’ll make it tonight! Thanks, Carla! Thanks, Heinen’s!
This sounds great – and it’s easy and quick to boot! What more could a working person who needs to get a tasty, healthy dinner on the table fast ask for?
Do you have a favorite wine you would pair this with, Carla? Something that would go with the spice I would add in the form of the red pepper flakes?
Sounds great! I have used many of Carla’s recipes in the past and this one will be next on my list.
Thank you!
Sounds lovely – May be dinner tonight – thank you! 🙂
