BF made this last night-it is from the FEB 2004 Healthy Cooking. It is delicious! Very lime-y, so reduce the lime juice if this scares you! 6 WW points per serving. BF added grilled chicken, it was a perfect combo. This would be easy to make veggie-just sub the broth. Ingredients:

1 red pepper, quartered lengthwise |
