My night to cook. We had a abundance of Cherry tomatoes and all the fresh herbs so gave it a try. Made up my own proportions for 2. Served with rotisserie chicken on top for protein. Used fresh grated parmigiana and black pepper per the recipe. Used too much garlic and will adjust next time. added to our recipe file for a do over. ☺️
My night to cook. I made for 2 and used cherry tomatoes. (We had an abundance!) I had all the fresh ingredients and faked proportions, so lots of tomatoes. Served with rotisserie chicken pieces on top for protein with fresh grated cheese and freshly ground black pepper. It was still a winner and added to our recipe book. Ok, I used too much garlic…
Used 2 tsp dry oregano & about 1 tbsp dry parsley since I didn't have either fresh. Added 1 tsp salt. Very tasty!!!
