This first time around I did cut the recipe in half, wanting to have enough to use in your recipe #1564249, as well as freezing some to see how that would work out! Very nice sauce, flavorful & satisfying, & I'm sure the freezing will work well, too! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's round of Pick A Chef]
