  1. Valerie REVIEW:

    Such a simple recipe, yet it made for a lovely dinner. You'll notice there aren't any seasonings called for in the recipe - I added salt but that was it. You could add some Italian-type herbs if you wish but surprisingly the dish had lots of flavor. I used a good quality tomato sauce which I think made a difference.
