    The sauce was especially phenomenal! I tried a bit of it on some angel hair pasta before I added it to the dish..and WOW! The sauce by itself deserves 5 stars! I used Chianti for the red wine, which is perfect for tomato-based sauces. I also improvised a bit by using a combination of zucchini and yellow squash, as well as some extra mushrooms. Fabulous!

    I love the idea of using zucchini instead of lasagne noodles for a twist. I can't wait to try this!
