I think this was very good. I cooked the rice crust 15' though to make it a little crunchier in the end. I also added small red beans for some protein. Next time I might add some fresh herbs but overall I thought this had a lot of flavor and was a great way to eat veggies. My 16 year old thought it was delicious and different!

It was okay. It's a good way to entice people to eat more vegetables and it looks good in a pie dish. The rice crust did not add to the dish.
