Wonderful guide to a nice veggie tomato sauce...I followed the suggestions and tossed in extra garlic, hot pepper flakes...mixes of red and green peppers, and red and white onion (like Snowpeas said...what ever was looking good :))...excellent results...made a yummy vegan lasagna with some and froze the rest to pull out when needed...(maybe a pizza, mine is nice and thick)...super yummy... Thanks Snowpeas :) (tagged for the "New Kids on the Block Game)
