I love one-dish meals, especially meatless ones that are as easy, healthy, and tasty as this one. It would have been perfect with less salt--next time I'll use a half teaspoon. The only changes I made were using olive oil and Smart Balance instead of butter and using beef broth instead of consomme. I misread the directions and simmered it uncovered, but it turned out fine. I sprinkled fresh parmesan on the top.
