This was delicious, thank you Susan. Just tweaked it a bit – added mushrooms, some tommies from the freezer, and cottage cheese with the sauce.
Hi Katue,
So glad you liked it. Actually I rarely make it the same each time. I tend to use the veggies that are in season and I LOVE mushrooms in it.
Hmmm, I haven’t tried cottage cheese in it but it would add some more protein, wouldn’t it?
Thanks for popping by!
