We renovated this classic Greek dish so it has full-strength flavor with just a touch of fat. It's hearty and satisfying; a year-round winner.

This was really good. Definitely making this again. I substituted spinach for the bell pepper.

A solid recipe. Not a superstar, but good for a weeknight dinner. I also used the tomatoes with garlic & basil, and used zucchini and artichoke hearts instead of bell pepper.
