This is delicious! I love it and would definitely recommend. I served it with whole wheat linguine and roasted broccoli (broccoli with a little olive oil, a bit of garlic, and pepper, roasted about 6-7 minutes at 425). - 4/16/12

So glad you loved it! I've never roasted broccoli, so I might have to try that soon!
