  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons margarine

  • ½ pound mushrooms, chopped

  • 1 onion, finely diced

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  1. Place the tomatoes with juice in a well buttered oven-proof baking dish. Mix in celery, garlic, and red pepper. Cover, and bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 25 minutes.

  2. In a large stock pot, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and onions, and cook and stir for about 8 minutes.
