I adapted this from the April/may 08 issue of Healthy Cooking. For a lowfat recipe, this is surprisingly satisfying.

I'm not a big fan of ricotta cheese, so I used cottage cheese instead. It was still delicious.

I thought the flavors were a bit bland. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
