Gail's Notes: Since we really don't need 12 servings, I cut the recipe in half.  It turned out okay but I think if I ever decide to make this again, I'll omit the sundried tomatoes.  As much as I love them, they didn't fit in with this recipe (to us anyway).  But I don't think I'll make it again--we just weren't that impressed with it.
