Introduction

NOTE: Number of servings is a guesstimate; I measured mine but not the kids' or the large amount still left over. This recipe is a first attempt to lighten up a recipe our daughter learned and loved in her cooking class at camp this summer. Clearly, there's more that can be done to lighten it up, but the kids ate it and liked it, and I think it still beats the blue box stuff for taste and nutrition.
