This tastes great and is easy to make! I also found the cooking time is closer to about 50 minutes and I cut my sliced tomatoes in 4 pieces because I like a bite of tomato in every bite, they make the dish for me, so I probably use at least double the tomatoes called for in the recipe, you can also use fresh, steamed broccoli instead of frozen if you wish. Defintely a keeper!
