I put everything in together, except the lemon & black pepper, then let it cook about 2 hours.

Right before I served it, I added 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, more salt, the black pepper & the lemon.

I omitted the cayenne, because I was going to serve it to children.

I'll probably make this every now and then because it is so easy!

With the left-overs, I added a small can of diced tomatoes, some ww pasta and some frozen spinach.
