This was very nice! I've been eating it for lunch and dinner for days! I added some steamed chicken breast into it after it was cooked and tasted great. I was lazy and didn't blanch the tomatoes just cut them up and chucked them in but was quick and easy next time I might even leave the butter out as I dont think it needed it and to make it a bit more healthy again.Thanks for a great recipe
