One of the most daunting tasks for both the professional chef and the home cook is coordinating the preparation of multiple items so that they are completed at the same time. And it doesn't matter...
Very easy and good. I used only green peppers and added a small, sliced onion while sauting. I also added a second can of stewed tomatos as I like more sauce and I used bowtie pasta. It's a keeper.
A new twist on classic creamy carrot soup. Add a bit of lime juice for extra zing.
