Of course, I always have to adjust recipes to my liking! I went into my cupboard for an onion and the only one there was soft and icky. So, I had to use dried onion flakes. Boo, but yum! Turned out well.
The veggies shrink to more than half volume. Keep that in mind when planning your serving sizes! Also, be prepared for some serious, amazing aroma!!
after:

Next time, I’d like to add some sauteed mushrooms to the mix! Also made a trip to the grocery store for some fresh pasta, but being a PD day, there were WAY TOO MANY people! The line ups were crazy! So, regular pasta it was. All delicious though. And yes, DO use the fresh parm. I added some cooked chicken to this. I’m even thinking that some fresh cream and bacon might add a delicious flavour experience!
Thanks Laureen!
