    Made this tonight on the first chilly night. It was so filling and satisfying. I'm not sure if the serving portion is correct though. There is no way I could eat half the pot, I only ate less than half a portion. Check out the nutritional value, it's incredible! - 9/6/11

    Oh glad that you have enjoyed it Tina...well I did cook for like 3/4 servings so I guess I should I mentionned that in the recipe. Use your imagination to add bits of leftover veggies as the possibilities are endless!I tried a variation of the recipe with grilled slices of mushroom some days ago.
