I thought this was really good and fresh tasting. I used fresh oregano from our garden, and also added fresh basil for a little more flavor. I will be making this again!

I made this for my boyfriend and he totally loved it! He kept going back to the pot for more. (There were no left overs this night!) I did make a couple of modifications, I used Balsamic salad dressing, and added grilled chicken. This a great recipe, you must try it.
