Delicious! Thanks so much for posting. It was easy to make, and with oregano and a pinch of red pepper, there was just enough zing to it. I wish I had fresh parm. to grate overtop, as I imagine that would have brought out the flavor even more.

Fantastic! I sprinkled a good amount of Italian seasoning on the chicken breasts prior to grilling them. I realized when it was a bit late that I had no fresh basil 
, so I used dried. Otherwise, followed your delicious recipe, adding both the red pepper flakes and the oregano. We loved it--thanks!

This is a great recipe, rick! I made as is, except used the immersion blender on our can of tomatoes since we don't like large chunks! I added the oregano and the red pepper (maybe a little too much red pepper!) Was great, but next time I'll probably leave out the red pepper flakes. Served with whole wheat penne. Thanks for posting your recipe!
