This was good, but had a sweet type taste to it that we didn't much like. The overall flavors were nice and i thought the amounts of sauce and vegetables were just right. -
Spicy! I loved it! I loved the tomato-y tastes in this! Thanks for the recipe, my husband loved it as well and said "You should make this again!"
