As is, this recipes is easy, light, and very good. I will make this again, but next time I'll probably add some extra ingredients - like herbs and red pepper flakes, maybe some chicken if I felt like meat.
Thanks for a good recipe! My first RR recipe!

I made this recipe and thought it tasted pretty good. Then I decided why not make some spaghetti meat sauce like I traditionally make with spaghetti. The two together are PHENOMENAL! O MY GOSH was it good!
