From the Test Kitchen
- Tip * Because hot chile peppers, such as jalapenos, contain volatile oils that can burn your skin and eyes, avoid direct contact with chiles as much as possible. When working with chile peppers, wear plastic or rubber gloves. If your bare hands do touch the chile peppers, wash your hands well with soap and water.

Fell in love with the crock pot liners! This dish is awesome. Used pre-prepared sausage crumbles and added bacon bits. Served as a side with pancakes... for dinner.

6/8/2010 10:14:34 AM Report AbuseI agree with scaldwel272056 about the calorie count being omitted in so many of the recipes. That is the most important part of the nutritional information for me and without it the rest of the info is nearly useless.
