    • Hi,
      No, I did not specify the amount of tomatoes. (and thank you, I will make side note)
      Use enough tomatoes to cover the bottom of a casserole dish + the top. (3.5 lbs should be enough, but you can use 4 lbs if you really like tomatoes)
      This recipe is very flexible. Don’t be afraid to play with ingredients.
      You need to layer the ingredients in this order:
      -pour 3 TBSP oil into bottom
      -place half of sliced tomatoes or enough to cover the bottom of your dish.
      -half of the veggies/rice mixture
      -chicken
      -Remaining veggies
      -sliced tomatoes
      If you don’t like chicken you can replace it with slices of your favorite meat.
      I hope this help.
      You can’t make mistake with this recipe. It is super easy.
