I made this today, only I didn't have the red pepper flakes on hand. That would have added some heat so I subbed a couple dashes of tabasco sauce.  It was delicious.  It was cold outside and this was a great lunch for me.  I didn't get the cornbread made, however.  Too lazy and my back was hurting too bad.  I use the jiffy cornbread mix but still it required too much bending to get stuff in and out of the oven for today, I may make that part tomorrow to go with the leftovers.  I always have to cut back on these recipes because I am cooking mostly for myself and occasionally a grandkid shows up to eat with me!
