See, super simple!I served this dish with slices of Tofurky and a green side salad.All the flavors of this baked dish really came through - bringing on thoughts of Spring and Summer encouraging me to grow lots of tomatoes, squash and potatoes so I can make this dish fresh from the garden!This encouraged me to get outside this past weekend to plant some seeds for tomatoes and summer squash. I also reached into my plump potato bags (where my potatoes are growing) and found these cutie pies:
I then promptly squealed with excitement at having grown these little gems - it's the little things here that make me happy!!Happy Meatless Monday everyone!
P.S. this recipe comes from Whole Living magazine - super yummy!!
