This cacciatore is delicious. I followed the recipe exactly using these amounts for the seasonings: 1 tsp kosher salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper 2 Tbsp Italian seasoning 1/2 tsp sugar I also added 2 medium diced zucchini to boost the vegetables. Use a larger baking pan if you add the zucchini.

It would be hard for me to choose between my two favorite hobbies, cooking and reading, so frequently I compromise and read a cookbook! My husband thinks we have an annex of the public library in our house there are so many books.
