I used 1 teaspoon of garlic powder instead of the garlic coves and left the green pepper out because I didn't have any. This was a great sauce and would be great for dipping sauce or on pasta. EXCELLENT! It was a little spicy for the husband but I did add 1/8 t of salt & pepper to the mix so leave out the pepper if the spicy is not your cup of tea.
