This is my Mon. night staple. Since it is even better the next day I make it on Sun. night, pop it in the fridge when its done and heat it up when I come hoem from work. I adapted it from a recipie on the back of a bertoli sauce jar..it freezes well, is pretty healthy and can be made with out without meat....generally I make it without....I have yet to have a complaint and lots of people request it...so enjoy!
