Mmm, this was really a nice change of pace! I followed the recipe to a "T", with the exception of using half swiss and half mozzarella cheese. I was really pleased with the outcome; this is a light dish that really doesn't taste like it...I once I added in the turkey I came up with a total of 330 calories for a fairly large serving. Nice! I did add a fair amount more salt, but I chalk that up to personal taste. Next time I might add a bit of black pepper as well. Thanks so much for posting! Made for Healthy Choices 2009.
