What a tasty sauce Katzen. We loved the tart,tangy, raw flavors with a hint of heat. It was wonderful served over fusilli noodles and garnished with shredded parmesan cheese and recipe #186620 (Mom's Meatballs). What a great meal it made. The sauce was quick and easy to make with ingredients always found in the pantry. My dh is looking forward to the leftovers today for lunch, stated that it is a wonderful comfort food. Thank you so much for sharing, made for Best of 2010.

Oh, yummy! Such a flavourful sauce! I made it to go over some steamed veggies that I baked casserole style. The garlic and chili add a nice heat, but are not overpowering the veggies. I think this sauce would be great with nearly every sort of pasta.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing yet another truly delish recipe with us, Kat!<br/>Made and reviewed for Veggie Swap #31 February 2011.

Great sauce for a pizza, which is how we used it. However, I can tell by the tasted that it will be spectacular as a sauce as well! I used canned tomatoes, but I can't wait til my garden tomatoes and jalapenos grow and I can make it with fresh produce! Thanks for posting! Made for Veg*n Swap May 2010!

I'm a now vegan who used to make one heck of a souvlaki. I love cooking, I was a huge fan of Moosewood and Molly Katzen prior to going vegan (although that has nothing to do with my choosing the name Katzen - that's just what my German Grandma has called me all my life.) Aside from cooking, I also love scuba diving, cycling, politics, and reading.
