Spicy Tomato Mussels: A Flavorful Seafood Delight

    If making a paella, I'd buy a kilo pack of mussels and only use 8 or so for the paella, then wonder what to do with the rest. I now always make this dish with the remaining mussels as an easy, delicious entree. Adapted from a 'Love Mussels' recipe I found on the web.
