I would truly give this more than 5 stars if I could! This was a breeze to throw together, but was absolutely delicious! The gentle flavors meld together to produce a wonderful, savory, elegant dish that I would definitely serve to company. I followed everything exactly as you stated except that I probably used a tiny bit more parmesan cheese than 1/4 cup. :) Divinemom5, thanks so much for this recipe. We loved it!
