Clean Eat

I absolutely LOVE this dish because it's one of my kid's favorite Italian dishes, because you can add anything from the garden into it (or leave any of the vegetables out that you dislike), but primarily because my Nonno taught this to my daughter and me. It is one of those dishes that gets better the next day :)
