I LOVED THIS RECIPE.It was sooooo good.I didnt have a can of crushed tomatoes so I through a can of stewed tomatoes in my chopper and chopped em up a bit, I also added a small can of tomato sauce and it worked like a charm.My hubbie was late from work ao I turned down the heat and let it simmer for an extra 20 or so min and the meat was tender and juicy.I have found a gem in this recipe.We eat to much chicken and this will serve as a nice change of scenery.Thanks for sharing.

Great recipe, however I used regular boneless pork chop cuts, the kind you get when you buy the family pack and left them whole. I also used a jar veggie spaghetti sauce which saved some time and money. It may not be as authentic, but it still worked out great. I also baked everything in a dish to really seal in the flavors.

I really enjoyed this recipe. I used some shredded pork that I had in the freezer and it still came out good. I did add more tomatoes and a small can of tomato sauce and used fresh Rosemary. I served it over noodles as recommended. The next night I used it as a filling in tortillas with cheese and rice. The flavors really came out the second night. Good recipe, will make this again.
