"This is from Betty Crocker. Quick, easy and healthy!! Nice meatless meal by itself with a salad. Or even as a side dish to grilled cheese!!"

This was so easy to make and I already had all of the ingredients on hand. I used salsa verde and I only had a block of pepper jack cheese so I grated that at the end. I garnished with some scallions (like I usually do) and this was great!! We had a small green salad with this for a lunch. Thanks Charmie for sharing this recipe!!
