Spring took its sweet time this year, and now that it has arrived, it seems to be working by my personal motto: Anything worth doing is worth overdoing. We had weeks of snow and drear and no flowers and now everything is arriving in the same week.

You can also process and freeze your own garden tomatoes and they work great in this recipe, but here it is with store-bought ingredients.
