A little note from Honey's Kitchen... Fresh ingredients can be hard to come by this time of year, especially for vegetables like tomatoes.  If you can't find Fresh ingredients, definitely substitute for canned or frozen.  By adding your favorite spices, you can surely make it taste fresh and delicious.
