I found this recipe recently in Joanna Lund's _The Diabetic's Healthy Exchanges_ and was very pleased when I tried it. Don't let the idea that it comes from a diabetic recipe book scare you. It tastes great and the substitutes don't give it an inferior taste, you can be sure, or I wouldn't recommend it. The only thing you might want to add is a little salt and basil.
