This is such a great recipe and really not that difficult to make. I only used 1/3 cup of oil and added some roasted red and green peppers, but otherwise, this was the best stuff ever! I made this for my friends and they loved it. Great flavor and very hearty. Meat can be added to it easily, if you really want to, but it isn't necessary at all. Enjoy!

Great sauce. Full of flavor. I followed the recipe to a T but added a splash of red wine and a pinch of sugar. Also, I suggest using San Marsano tomatoes. They are the best and make a big difference. My husband loved the sauce. Very flavorful and looks homemade!
