    Fresh herbs would also be a good addition. I'll try adding some basil or oregano next time.

    Serving it over pasta is a great idea! I used rotini and it was a perfect combination.

  • Litzy Lubowitz

    I didn't have diced tomatoes with green chilies, so I used regular diced tomatoes and added a pinch of chili powder. It worked great!

  • Landen Konopelski

    This is a great base recipe that can be easily customized to your liking.
