This is a pretty good vegetarian dish. It's not super filling and could use some more seasoning. I topped it with some mild salsa and it was just fine. I'll probably make this again. The husband took one bite and did not want anymore. He didn't like it. It is important to note that he tends to assume he doesn't like anything with beans and cheese in it though.
