Introduction

An old favorite comfort food out of Jane Brody's Good Food Book. (I substituted low-fat cheese to cut the fat/calories a bit.) Makes a hearty, protein-filled vegetarian main dish, or a great side dish. An old favorite comfort food out of Jane Brody's Good Food Book.

    Very Good
    Pretty good, but it needed some more spices. It's such an easy recipe to add whatever you want to flavor it differently. I'm thinking next time adding chopped ham and some peas. - 2/11/10
