    I made this with only .80lb so that's roughly 1/2 the recipe. It was awesome The only difference I made was salted butter cause that's all I had at home. I made zucchini with onions and green pepper with a little bit of oil and butter it was awesome!! - 8/22/17

    This is now a family favorite. It's quick easy and taste so good. One modification I made was to add some Goya All Purpose Seasoning to the mix,because when I first made it the family said it was missing a tad bit of salt. Great Recipe! Thanks for sharing. - 8/28/13

    So delicious and so easy to throw together. I love how low cal it is, but even so if you wanted to make it even lower cal it's just a matter of subbing 'light' versions of things. Awesome recipe! thanks! - 8/14/12

    This is one of my favorites!! And it's so easy. I leave out the butter and just do the mayo, light mayo of course! My Husband loves this too. I cook this on nights when I'm in a hurry or too tired to really cook. Very good! - 4/23/10

    I used actual parmesan cheese and grated it (the pre-made parmesan cheese has cellulose listed in the ingredients) and left out the celery seed (none in my cupboard). It was really, really good! Thanks! - 8/15/09
