So easy... so delicious! I didn't even really have to follow the recipe exactly... I just put in however much of each ingredient I wanted (lots of tomatoes and basil for extra flavor! And I didn't have wine, so I used lime juice instead. The only problem was we didn't have enough to eat! We all wanted seconds :
