Ever since we tried this recipe a few months ago, my husband keeps requesting it. I think it's a new favorite of his, and mine too. It is full of flavor, vegetables, and low on fat. So, I think this is going to be a regular in our house from now on - because it is SO hard to find healthy recipes that actually taste good. So, if you're like me and are constantly looking for delicious healthy choices, this is a great one to try. Enjoy!
