This is a 5 by me but my husband and kids preferred the lamb without the tomatoes, etc. I think it would be great to simmer in the sauce as a matter of fact! Thanks for a great recipe for ME! It was really easy to prepare.

This was really delicious and so healthy! I used extra trim lean lamb pieces and instead of canned Italian tomatoes I used a regular can of tomatoes and added Italian herb blend. I served this with zucchini and mushrooms which I stir fryed in a non-stick pan. I will make this again.
