This was a "hit" in our house (both TEENS enjoyed)! I used some freshly ground Italian seasoning (McCormick's). I will be making this one, again. Thanks! Roxygirl

3/4 of our family loved this! I loved how flavorful it was for such a low fat dish! I substitued julianned carrots for the asparagus, and used dried basil (about a 1/2 TBSP) and a pinch of thyme. I think I'd use oregano next time I make it, as that is our family's preferred spice. It looks as if it will reheat well for lunch tomorrow as well!
