I happened to see Robin Miller make this recipe on the food network the other day. I don't usually watch this show and have never made any of Robin's recipes. The recipe appealed to me because it was light and had several ingredients I like such as artichokes, olives, and roasted zucchini. Overall this meal was good but not amazing. I think it needs a sauce or something to bring all the flavors together. I think I'm going to reheat the leftovers for my husband and melt some cheese on top. It might even work better as a pasta salad with a vinaigrette dressing. Sounds like an idea for lunch today! I think the recipe is a good starting point but it needs some adjustment.
