He was so proud when he got it done right, I only wish that I took better pictures. I was in a rush to eat dinner since it looked so good! I guess Dan will have to make this recipe again! I do have to admit that I have a love/hate relationship with cooked tomatoes, I tasted them but didn’t love the texture. That’s not to say they weren’t good, Dan really liked them.
