Author Aviva Goldfarb says, "Six O’Clock Scramble CFO (and my good friend) Robin Thieme stopped by on a Saturday to drop off a book and was surprised to find that I was cooking a hot lunch for my husband, Andrew, and me. I confessed that I was just trying to use up some produce before it went bad. Robin joined us for lunch and we all agreed this dish is a winner. Serve with Tropical Island Smoothies."
To make this recipe a little quicker, use a jalapeno salsa or hot sauce instead of roasting the peppers. Use about 1/4 cup or adjust to the spiciness that you prefer.
