A surprising main dish with the sharp taste of apples and cheese. The first time that I was served this by my dear friend, Claire, I couldn't get enough. I begged for the recipe, made it the next evening, and feel NO guilt over eating it all! Served with steamed asparagus and a nice crisp white wine, it is the perfect meal for friends and family.
