This makes a simple, but tasty pasta sauce. I don't like parsley so much so I used oregano instead. I'd probably add a few more herbs and some garlic next time and maybe even some bell pepper. Thanks for sharing! I'll add it to my list of meals for those days when you work a lot longer then planned, but don't want a take away! Thanks for sharing!
