    Quick and versatile...I took out the chile and cumin, and added sautéed onion and Italian herbs. Even the kids love it! Now we use it as a quick meal on the go with pasta or rice.

    Definitely needs extra garlic - at least double. Fine on it's own, but divine when served over rice, sprinkled with green olives, some of their brine, and hot sauce.
