    This is a great recipe, especially for the kids. I added garlic and a blend of basil, oregano and rosemary. This is wonderful, especially on a cold night! Also great with cheese toasties or a nice loaf of crusty bread! Thanks!

    ok well i altered this recipe a little bit and it was AMAZING. but if i hadnt altered it it would have been bland. SO i recomend that u add salt, pepper, basil, parsley and oregano to the sauteed tomatoes and onion. and i used tinned tomatoes so i didnt need to add water becasue the tinned tomatoes had so much tomato juice. good luck!!
