I have to admit I strayed a little. We used Huntz roasted garlic spaghetti sauce and didn't use any spinach or basil leaves. However we did everything else the same and I must say YUMMY! My husband and I loved them! I am due in 5 days and finding something that "hits the spot" is rare, but this sure did the trick! Thanks for the easy, wonderful recipe! Mandi
