  1. Thanks for this delicious recipe! Since I didn't have Mrs. Dash, I used actual tomato, basil and garlic.
     
  2. Surprisingly great, Lianna Banana. I used a tomato seasoning of salt, pepper, sugar and thyme, and garnished the finished dish with Recipe #72684. Wonderful, fresh and quick supper. We'll be having this one regularly. I multiplied by 4 for the two of us.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am on a very low sodium version of the D.A.S.H. diet to control my hypertension. Because of this, I have to cook everything from scratch, as canned foods, prepared mixes and ready-made food all have too much sodium in them. Fortunately, my mother was one of those cooks who could always make good food by throwing together a little of this and a little of that -- most of the time without measuring ingredients -- and I seem to have inherited her knack for cooking.
