I usually don't review if I have to substitue ingredients, but this was just soooo good! I didn't have fresh tomatoes, but I ahd some dehgydrated plum tomatores fromour garden and I didn't have pecan, but I did have almonds - so I substituted those. other than that I stuck with the recipe and it was really good! Thank you for the wonderful recipe!! I will make it again I'm sure!
