  1. My kind of dish! But you already knew that, right, Barb? Used red and yellow tomatoes - had no heirlooms. Only change I made was to use basil instead of oregano because I'm not crazy about oregano. Excellent used as a side dish with chicken, but I could make a meal out of just this alone. Thanks once again for a wonderful recipe. Keep posting, Barb.
