Awesome base recipe. I have made this several times with whatever ingredients I have on hand (leftover fresh herbs, meat, veg, etc)and it has always turned out beautifully. I make it with six servings for a full pie, and I find it takes closer to 45 minutes to cook through. Delicious.

Excellent easy delicious recipe. I used regular green peppers chopped up and roasted a regular tomato with 10 of my own small (grape sized) dried tomatoes. Just rehydrated them in hot water.
