I have made this dish several times, the first time for Thanksgiving dinner. The vegetables were fabulous. Very interesting combination, had everyone guessing what was in there. It's a wonderful dish to serve for a gathering in the winter. I've had nothing but compliments on it everytime I serve it.07/20/05

Not very interesting--suprisingly, there wasn't much flavor in the end result, other than the veggies themselves. Makes a huge amount--we had lots of leftovers from a dinner party of 9.01/03/04
