This was too much for me to eat, but the portions I wrote down is what is on the plate. I sauteed the onion and the peppers in the oil. YUM! That is my favorite way to eat my oils. This is one of my favorite meals of all time. My husband and kids roll theirs up in tortillas to make "tacos." They use ranch and BBQ sauce with theirs. This meal keeps me feeling very satisfied for a long time. I love it.
