Excellent and easy. We applied some of the suggestions from other reviews and added about 8oz of mushrooms, one bell pepper, used chicken broth instead of water, subbed aboit 15 ounces of fire roasted tomatoes, and used more tomato paste than the recipe called for. We did a lot of measuring with our heart and taste tested it several times throughout the cooking process. Definitely making this again.
If you like a little extra kick, it tastes great with chili oil.
