The Kitchen of Kristen

This blog is a little eclectic sometimes. I eat a vegetarian diet and my husband is a meat-eater, so you will find some of everything in here. I do not create any of the recipes, and I credit the original recipe unless I don't know where it came from. If you click on those links, you can see what I may have changed from the original. Specific brands and exact weights are listed for nutritional information only. Feel free to substitute as you would like. And ENJOY!

Dave says it wasn't spicy enough... I agree, it could be spicier! But it's really good comfort food! I WILL make it spicier next time!

It wasn't spicy enough b/c you left out the Louisiana hot sauce!!! It really makes it hotter. You can also add hot sauce (tobasco works too) to each bowl to suit each person's desired spicyness.
