This has to be one of the best main dish recipes I've gotten from the zaar to date. The vegetables and sauce are just out of this world. I can't believe how easy it was and yet turned out so good. I used fresh diced plum tomatoes, and roasted red peppers out of a jar(no gas in the bbq). I served this with fusselli pasta and salad. This will be made often. Thank you so for posting this great recipe. Made for ZWT III.
