I found the evaporated skim milk made the consistency of the sauce a bit odd. It was almost curdled. This wasn't bad, but it wasn't a 5 star meal either. You can definitely tell that it's low fat.

    This was good but not great. I thought the evap milk didn't really do enough to the sauce to warrent the use of it at all. Sorry, maybe I did something wrong.

    Really nice recipe. I ended adding a bit more stewed toms because I didn't want to waste them, so I added 1/4 tsp more basil and 1 clove more garlic. Very sweet and comforting. I used an Artisan pasta, but I think it would be perfect with Linguini. Garlic bread would just be sensational w/ it. Thanks for the keeper!
