Tasty sauce. Different and fresh tasting. I made the recipe exactly as is (the vegetarian version) and it came out great. Very simple and quick. The amounts of basil and oregano were perfect.

A nice sauce that doesn't take too long. I used a 28-oz can of diced tomatoes pureed in the blender. I also simmered with a few bay leaves and added a dash of celery salt. We enjoyed. Thank you.

This is a very easy and delicious sauce to make. I use 1/2 lb ground turkey breast and it is yummy! Also included 1 can 8 oz tomato sauce (without salt) to complement the cans of tomatoes. Couldn't find crushed tomatoes so I used diced tomatoes without salt and it worked just great.

This sauce was very easy and tasty. I must admit that I did not make it with the ground turkey and it was great. I added a tspn of boullion to make up for it. I served it as 1 of 2 choices to serve on pasta. The other choice was a cheese sauce. Next time I make this I will try it with the ground turkey. I also used fresh basil and oregeno and it gave it a great flavor.
