This sauce was very good and easy, however I did skip the green pepers, and added meat and it still turned out good. Thanks for sharing your recipe, my family loved it! - 06 Aug 2005 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Delicious! My boyfriend loved this sauce. I was so angry because the mushrooms I had went bad, so I had to leave them out. The sauce was great without them, though! - 09 May 2007 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
