Great recipe. I altered it a bit to suit my own needs. I added 5 cloves of garlic chopped, fresh rosemary, and 1/2 cup of red wine instead of the water. I also cooked it in a crockpot. I cooked it slow for about 6 hours. It's very hearty and I liked the idea of cutting the vegi's BIG, it adds to the heartiness!!! DLA Concord, CA.

Love to read. I collect books and have quite a collection but am always adding more. I have also discovered audio books and find that I am able to get through more books by listening to them.
Have recently started knitting and I really enjoy it even if it is quite a challenge at times.
Always searching for a great recipe in any food category. As might be expected I never find "The One" but find many delicious ones along the way.
