What a colorful veggie dish! This really goes well with any meat or fish but I think chicken is the best match for this. I wouldn't need any other side dish besides this. I did add some garlic and used real cheddar cheese (more than 1/2 cup) but I still thought it could have used some more flavor. Maybe fresh parsley or cayenne or some mustard? Next time I'll play around more. I will use this recipe again, especially over the holidays when I have leftovers from those veggie trays! Thanx!
