This was a sunny dish to brighten up a gloomy winter day. Even if it didn’t feel like I was in Tuscany, it at least smelled like I was. It was also so easy to put together that I made it while I was sick and had a fever (for some reason, even if I’m sick everyone else still wants to eat. ???) I was kind of surprised that there wasn’t any garlic in the recipe, so I added a few cloves of crushed garlic to the roasting pan, because everything’s better with garlic. I served this up with some brown rice and fresh salad greens. Plan to Eat users, click on the recipe title to import the recipe into your account.
