    Love this sauce!

  • I made this sauce the other night when I really didn’t feel like cooking. It came together quickly, and tasted delicious served with some homemade bread and Carraba’s style dipping oil. Thanks for the great recipe! Also, I notice you’re in Houston…me too (well, Katy as of last year). Nice to see another local person out there in the great wide world of blogs. Your blog is great–your photos and recipes keep me coming back!

  • Glad you liked the sauce!

    Cara – Thanks! And glad to hear from a fellow Texan!

  • I like your blog!
