I was going to a party with people from many different countries and many of them were vegetarians. I had no idea of what to do and while looking at the refrigerator, I decided to make it. My husband said it sounded like a very bad dish and that it would be better to make something sweet, but I did't listen to him and for my surprise many friends asked me the recipe after the party! So.. I made it my way but you can make all the alterations you want to make it your way! I thought that it would be nice to spread some parmesan cheese on top of it before grilling, but I did't have any.. So if you do, please tell me if it you liked it! Happy to share my recipe with you! Enjoy!
