Sarahn’s Tip: This recipe originally calls for pine nuts, but they can be expensive. Instead use mixed nuts. A tablespoon per serving! It adds to the flavor and makes this dish more festive!
Sarahn’s Twist: I decided to do my own thing with this recipe! I added chopped onion, green chilies and a little bit of vegetable broth to the dish. The onions and green chilies add a real kick, and the vegetable broth gives it a slightly soupy feel that warms your belly. Also, I used spinach and kale for the main ingredient.
Sarahn’s Taste: The recipe calls for cheese to be sprinkled on top, but I found that I preferred this dish without the cheese (I used feta)! Taste it first without the cheese and if you still need a little something extra, sprinkle away! #sarahnsays
