So this recipe is whacked….the portions are off on most everything 1 there is not enough roasted veggies (I doubled 2 says you need 12 shells –try 6 after doubling the roasted veggies 3 wine in white bean gravy was way too much —2 T would have been plenty for the flavor to set better 4 Seasonings for tomatoes were non-descript……Recipe overall tasted ok but not worth the effort and frustration for the flavor
