MEDITERRANEAN ONE-DISH MEAL



Mediterranean One-Dish Meal image

I came up with this recipe one night while improvising with what I had on hand. I love to make simple, healthful, one-dish meals with lots of vegetables. Feta and Greek olives give this one a depth of flavor people seem to love. -Donna Jesser, Everett, Washington
