Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is a really good hearty vegetarian entree, especially if served with a crusty Italian bread. One serving is only 270 calories, with 7 grams of fat and 3 grams of fiber. Only 20 mg cholestorol. The smoky Gouda gives this dish a surprisingly rich flavor and texture for something so light.
