For a richer flavor, use a dry red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. If you don't have trottole pasta, penne or rotini will work well. To make this dish vegetarian, substitute the bison with plant-based ground meat or an additional can of diced tomatoes and a cup of lentils. Fresh oregano can be used in place of dried oregano. Use 1 tablespoon of fresh, chopped oregano.
