For my money Red Gold is the best of canned tomatoes. I once hd someone 
give me some "Muir Glen Organic" stuff. So, I did a blind taste test 
uning the Muir Glen and Red Gold and had the donor of the Muir Glen rate
each. He was amazed when he selected the R.G.

IIRC I used this recipe but did not do the tomatoes w/chilies noted in
the recipe as there was no Muir Glen equivalent.  Bv)=  It was still
quite nice.
