I was thumbing through my moms Everyday Italian by Giada, and came across so many Italian recipes I can make from my local Mini Mart. Sometimes it takes a fresh cookbook to to spruce up my blog. This recipe was one of my dads favorites, I make it with love in my heart when I think of my dad enjoying his Matriciana with his glass of red wine.
The only ingredients missing from Giadas original recipe are fresh garlic and fresh onion, but we went with the dried onion and garlic powder,and added a bit more black pepper and extra red pepper flakes, and the meal was delish.
