ReplyDeleteI have some fresh tomatoes that I need to use.
It is making me hungry
I made this today it is so delicious & easy; my kind of recipe.
ReplyDeleteSomeone had given me some tomatoes so I used fresh and added a little salt. I have not used fresh basil so I thought that 2 cups was going to be too much; but it wasn’t. I even used basil that I raised myself. I served it with grilled chicken that I marinated in Italian Dressing.
I give it 5 stars *****
