  1. Well Ellie you should give this a try. It`s very good. as I was making it I though about adding onions and garlic. But I didn`t. It was great. I tasted this before adding the lemon and after and both were very good. The only change I made was I used 3 tablespoons of olive oil in place of the 6 tablespoons of clarified butter. Thanks for posting this Ellie!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
