This recipe comes from the current issue of the magazine Cooking for Two and I've adapted it to be cooked on the stovetop instead of in the microwave, be lighter, and to make 8 servings. The original recipe was for a single serving. It is easy to cut in half if need be. I posted this on my blog, but Donna told me I should come over and post it here, too.
