Simply DELICUIOS, We really enjoyed this for dinner along with a nice green salad.I halved the recipe for just the two of us and had some left over for lunch. I steamed the Asparagus instead of boiling it, other than that I made it as the recipe said,But,used a pie pam to bake it in. Thank you Ellie for another delicious recipe.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
