Bland, bland, bland. Didn't care for this at all. I gave it two stars because it is healthy and colorful. I doubled the recipe to 8 and served it for a Thanksgiving side to 15 people and more than HALF was left. I tasted it as I was preparing it and tried to jazz it up with all kinds of seasoning to no avail. Won't make again.
