I saw this recipe in the March 2006 Good Housekeeping, and made it the other night. It was great.

I added cooked Italian sausage, chopped onion, 2 large garlic cloves (minced), drained canned mushrooms, Italian seasoning, and upped the mozzarella cheese.

Thanks for the recipe; GH doesn't have it on their site, though I know I searched correctly, as I kept the printed page from the magazine, which shows a lovely photo.
