I enjoyed this Nancy, as you say, a good vegetarian dish, I am happily enjoying this for my lunch altho we did use it a side when first made (I made plenty coz I knew I would love it!!) I did use frozen spinach and omitted the mushrooms because I am not really a fan. Loved all the different flavours, I love gorgonzola and lemon, and spinach -- oh gosh, all of it!!! Another time I might add nuts of some sort, maybe pine nuts or toasted almonds. Thank you, lovely dish, made for Consideration Tag Game
