I made 1/2 the recipe for my husband and myself last night for supper. It was a definite success. I used fresh roma tomatoes and basil from our CSA farm. I used half the amount of olive oil that the original recipe called for and reduced fat cream cheese (not fat free). A great use of summer fresh tomatoes.
