One of the other members made the comment that "fat is fat". Not true. This is a very "Heart Healthy" dish. 1 TBL of Olive oil contains 13.5g of tot fat, 0g of trans fat, 1.1g of poly-unsat fat, and 9.9GM of MONO-SATURATED fat - the fat that clears your arteries of cholesteral. Heart or calories? - 11/17/09

I like this a lot - I add some italian seasoning to the crumb top mixture. I like a little less olive oil in the recipe but I know it needs to be there nonetheless...Did You Know That your body needs some kind of fat similar to olive oil to properly extract the nutrition from vegetables? :-) - 8/6/08
