This was delicious! I did not have any fresh parsley, but used dry parsley instead. I also did not have any parmesean on hand so I eliminated that ingredient. However, it was still very delicious!

Nice side dish. I served this with blackened chicken and it was a perfect compliment. Easy and good. Thanks dicentra for sharing. Made for Bargain Basement Tag.
