Spicy and delicious!! I serve this with a fresh spinach and tomato salad, or your can use your favorite garden green salad. This will feed a family of four, with left overs. I always add a little extra red pepper flakes for added heat and flavor. I actually found this recipe on a healthy cooking website and made a few minor changes(used fresh garlic instead of canned, I use four cans of diced tomatoes for extra saucyness and use the tomatoes with seasonings instead of plain diced tomatoes).
