Saw you making this on channel 9 and had to try it. AWESOME!! I added some shrimp and scallops and a few halved cherry tomatoes. Excellent dinner and quick!
I make something like that but I also add chopped up seeded fresh tomatoes and fresh mozzarella balls before serving.
That sounds wonderful! It would be great added to this dish! Thanks! -Amy
