This simple dish comes together quickly and, when served right out of the oven, provides a hearty cold-weather meal. Offer with a tossed green salad or sliced tomatoes, hot crusty Italian bread, and fresh fruit and cheese. Best beverages for this would include hot mulled apple cider or a fragrant herbed tea.
