This recipe should have a warning label. WAY too much pepper. White, black and otherwise. It actually made me physically ill. My son, who loves all hot food, didn't like it either. Hard to get past the pepper!!!!

This recipe is probably going to be very good the next time I make it, but the amount of salt is WAY too much.
