Nina’s Notes: I really love this dish because it’s quick to make and satisfies my need for HEAT! If you don’t like spicy, feel free to reduce the amount of jalapenos. For a heartier meal, serve over steamed spaghetti squash! For Phase 3, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt is very nice!
