Kira - this looks great! I could use a bowl of that now :) You could also submit this to the upcoming Chef Spotlight Dinner blogging event I'm hosting next month. We're featuring healthy chefs/cooking sites (like Cooking Light) and this recipe would be great to including in the upcoming round up. Details are in my blog's left sidebar. :)
