The original dish was created in 1908 in San Francisco in honor of opera star Luisa Tetrazzini. There is a cooling and standing time of a total of 10 minutes. This was found in Better Homes and Gardens, May 2007 edition. This is so delicious and such great comfort food! Use both red & yellow peppers, they make it taste wonderful!
