This was an alright sauce. It needs some doctoring up. It came out way too sweet for my liking. I cut back the vinegar to 1 1/2 cups per the other reviews suggestion. If I make this again I will cut back the sugar. With some ground beef and mushrooms this is good. If you like sweet sauces then this is the one for you.

This is a very good sauce. I was looking for a sauce for my homegrown tomatoes and this caught my eye. The onions, celery and green pepper give it wonderful flavor. I used an immersion blender, so it was super easy, too!The only thing I would do next time is reduce the vinegar to 1 cup (and keep the sugar amount the same), because I thought it was a bit to acidic. I did add some extra sugar, but still a bit too acidic. Thanx for the recipe. I will continue to make this with my little change.
