This recipe was a good start to something better I think. As is this recipe has a lot of flavor but I have to say that something is missing. It needs other veggies and I would definantly cook this at low heat once everything is added after the onions. Maybe adding some spinach or broccoli rabe or escarole would complete this meal. Definantly serve with some crusty bread because the "sauce" is great. MrsDoty, I finally got to making this recipe since you revised it...so much better, exactly what I was looking for.
