    This was pretty good and easy to make. I added artichokes and black olives, since my family enjoys those. I did use fat free provolone, but think I would prefer mozzerella. - 5/25/09

    I've made quite a few of the SB recipes, and, like the others, this IS a keeper! YUMMY! I made extra of the ricotta topping and added some of the crushed tomatoes to it, along with some red pepper flakes, and mixed it with some WW Penne. I also baked some zucchini. Great meal! - 5/26/09

    Loved this! Added a slice of proscuitto between the ricotta and the mozzerella which upped the salt but still very tasty. - 2/9/09

    This recipes came out awesome. My fiance and father-in-law loved it.

    I did slightly alter it, though. It says to cook the chicken for 12 minutes per side. I didn't want to burn it, so I went with much less time on cooking the chicken in the skillet.

    This was very good. I forgot the crushed tomatoes so I used a small can of tomato sauce and chopped up some roma tomatoes. I also used reduced fat shredded mozzarella. - 10/5/11

    I used provolone cheese instead of mozarella. I also did not leave the chicken on the stovetop as long, maybe only 9 mins. per side. It turned out great! - 2/15/11

    I made this out of my sb cookbook yesterday and my family raved about it. thanks for typing it in so i didn't have to! I would probably flatten the chicken breasts. I didn't use frozen and they were a little too plump for my liking. - 9/6/10

    My husband loved this. I have made it twice now. I made without the tomatoes and it was so good, I didn't miss not having a pasta. - 1/25/09

    I really like this one. I cook the chicken ahead and freeze portions individually. When I cook this meal I take out what I need, and cook in individual ramekins. - 5/10/13

    I think you mean "allow to COOL in a baking dish." Looks GREAT, can't wait to try it. Thanks for your creativity! - 12/6/12

    This was excellent!! Not everyone in our house is living the SB life, but even they loved it! Kind of a mock chicken parmesan without all the fattening cheese used. Truly couldn't tell that fat-free and lowfat cheese was used. Used a can of Hunts diced tomatoes, w/basil, oregano and garlic. Delish! - 6/11/12
