Notes

If you need more liquid, you can add tomato juice from the can or water. You can also use only canned tomatoes, only fresh tomatoes, or a combo of the two like us. Sometimes using all canned tomatoes saves a lot of time and still tastes great! Add some more parsley at the end to your liking. It serves well with polenta.
