     I up the vegetables and add cheese to make a complete meal! I also change it to a salad by adding vinegar and serving cold on a bed of lettuce for a summer meal. - 5/17/10

     I make this type all the time adding sometimes spinach, zucchini, S. squash peppers and ground lean turkey if for company and add a couple tablespoons of flaxseed for more fiber. You can also substitute 1 tbl flaxseed in 3 tbls of water stir and add instead of an egg. No one will know. 6 stars !! - 5/17/09

     I really enjoyed this. We made it for lunch while my husband was at work - he would have wanted chicken or something with it. My daughter thaught it was a little dry so she added a few tablespoons of spaghetti sauce to her bowl. - 5/17/10

     Grill the veges (either on the grill or in the oven) for added flavor. I use zukes, broccoli, asparagus with a goal of a rainbow of veges. - 5/17/10

     It was O.K. not so pleasing for kids. next time I'm going to put light itailian dressing on it it needed a little more flavor. - 6/13/08

     It had an earthy taste to it but was very good!! - 11/12/07
  • BYUSUE
     This was good, but just not very filling. I think adding some chicken would solve that problem. - 11/6/07
  • CARNEY8
     I've made this several times, and enjoyed it both hot and cold as a salad.
    I marinated the vegetables ahead of time in the Italian dressing ---fatfree of course, but you could make your own with a good EVOO-- and added grated lemon zest for a real kick. I also used fresh thyme leaves. - 11/1/07
  • CAROLANNV
