Great, easy recipe. I modified it a bit using ingredients I had on hand: chopped fresh garden tomatoes and green (not red) pepper, garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. I topped with a handful of spring mix and a squeeze of lemon juice instead of blanched kale. Very easy, tasty and healthy lunch!

Cooking should be easy and fun, in my opinion! And it's not only what you eat, but how you eat it . . . a peaceful meal eaten with a sense of gratitude will do wonders for the digestion. I cook for my family and we enjoy mainly organic, vegetarian dishes.
