  3. CypKitty's recipe is very similar to mine and it does taste great and is very simple to cook.  I sometimes use tinned tomatoes if the fresh ones are too dear. I also like sliced or pitted olives added just to the top of the dish. I am Greek also.

  4. This one matches the ingredients, and they're all baked together for 45 minutes:
