You can use either feta cheese or parmesan in this recipe and I used a ¼ cup of parmesan. You could go to ½ a cup if you wanted a stronger cheese flavor. This recipe is definitely a keeper and I plan to make it often. There are lots of vegetable variations you can do including adding artichokes, hearts of palms or broccoli. This dish can be served warm or cold.
