Oh what a simple and delicious meal this makes!
And for the most part, it's a healthy recipe too. It uses some butter - you could substitute with egg whites if you want - but I prefer using Smart Balance buttery sticks. It adds such great flavor.
And we honestly can't tell a difference.

I found this tasty entree at The Girl Who Ate Everything. She has a very lovely set up at her blog and tons of followers. NICE!
We all need something easy & quick to fix sometimes, and this one'll be that for you.
Serve it over whole wheat spaghetti if you'd like.

This looks absolutely delish!! I love all the cheese that's involved. This will definitely be marked as a "to do" recipe.
