Excellent!! I'm not normally a lover of Swiss cheese, but all of these ingredients were wonderful together. I made this with Mushroom Risotto and Roasted Asparagus with Brown Butter and Pecorino and this is the best dinner I've had on the tour so far. Thanks so much Charmie! This will be repeated often. Made for ZWT4.

    You just have to love the simple recipes! This was delicious. My husband mmmm'd his way thrugh dinner again. When he does that, it's usually a 5 star recipe. I took your suggestion and served a mushroom pilaf and green beans with it.
