The night before Thanksgiving and I want something easy to throw together.  This was delish.  Family loved it too.  I forgot to pick up bean sprouts so substituted chopped celery and it was perfect.  Will definitely make this again.

Tasty! I added extra bell pepper instead of the bean sprouts (not a big fan), and I also added some chopped pineapple that I had on hand, which made for a fun addition.
