Made this for the Cook-a-Thon in memory of VickyJ and this is such an easy and delicious meal. You can do almost anything to it. I subbed spinach for the lettuce (that is what I had) and followed the rest of the instructions. I will make this again for a quick meal that I really enjoyed.

This recipe met everything I was looking for: easy, healthy, and really tasty! I added lots of mushrooms and took the tip to use spinach instead of lettuce. I think I'll be making this recipe often, especially when I have lots of leftover veggies and am short on time. Thanks!!

I enjoyed this & customized it with what I had. Forgive me all vegetarians-but I couldn't resist throwing in a little diced turkey pepperoni into the filling!! I omitted the lettuce-used dried minced onion, zucchini & broccoli. I messed with the spices-used some oregano, garlic powder, seasoning salt & black pepper-loved the worch & will use some onion powder next time. I only used a few tbsp of reduced fat mozz & cooked this like a quesadilla so the tortilla would be nice & toasty. At the last minute, I mixed some hot salsa & fat free sour cream together & used that as a dip-which was just fabulous & gave it a great bite. Thank u for sharing this!

I enjoyed this yummy and healthy recipe. I used zucchini and yellow squash for the veggies as that's what I had on hand. I will probably make this often. Thanks!
