I have made this recipe several times. This recipe works well for two servings. I find that 2 cans of diced tomatoes works best for this recipe. Definitely a 5 star recipe. **original recipe calls for 4 14.5 oz cans of stewed tomatoes.** for 4 servings. I use italian style stewed tomatoes"

Yummy! I used the full complement of garlic and thought it was great I like it pretty spicy, so I used more red pepper flakes. Served it over whole wheat pasta. Thanks!
