This is so simple to make. I use my Le Cruset dutch oven, and it comes out beautiful. We started with the original recipe, to the tee, but through many times of making it and having to accommodate what's in the pantry, I've used Italian stewed tomatoes as a substitute for the tomato sauce. The chunky tomatoes really adds to it. But it also perfect just as is. Thanks so much for the great recipe!

I'm a psychotherapist who decided to start cooking creatively after years of resistance. I cook primarily vegetarian but cook with other ingredients when my family complains too much. I'm the mother of 3 sons, two of whom are grown, and I've been married since 1978. I cringe when I think back on the cooking my poor husband valliantly endured when we were first married. I collect cookbooks and frequent the thrift shops in my area for unusual finds.
