And not just me — my mom’s requested I make this for her birthday this year!

The red pepper adds the perfect amount of kick, and I add some extra broccoli as we are veg lovers. I’m also GF (celiac disease) and tried adding sliced almonds instead of breadcrumbs for topping. Highly recommend to fellow GF folks, gave it a lovely, light crunch.

Hi Kim, I haven’t tried it in this recipe, but I think it could work if you wanted a vegan substitute, or just to increase the nutritional profile.

Do you have any thoughts on using nutritional yeast in this recipe?

Many thanks!

This way we do not eat the whole recipe between two of us in one sitting .

Reminds me of something my mother made but healthier. The quinoa is genius. Hubby doesn’t like quinoa thinks but he loved this. It mixes in so well with other ingredients.

Yes, and it also works with rice.

Hi Jody, I would freeze without baking, defrost overnight in the refrigerator and then cook according to the directions.

I love this recipe! I want to make it ahead for something— do you freeze before or after baking? Thanks!

It has been requested the last three years at Thanksgiving for both our school potluck and our family dinner. In both locations, I was able to prep it the night before and then put it in oven right before it was served. Could it be prepped in a crockpot the night before and then let it heat/warm in the crockpot a few hours at a space without an oven or will it become soggy?
