Notes
Use any vegetables you have on hand that sound good to you.As written, this dish is moderately spicy. To find your preferred spiciness level, I recommend starting with a small amount of red pepper flakes and working your way up to the level that you like. Let them simmer in the sauce for a couple minutes before tasting and adding more.
