    Note to self and others: V8 is not a substitute for tomato juice in the case. This was amazing as I made it, even with the V8, but I think pure tomato juice would have made it even better. I added the parsley (1 tsp dried) and can't imagine the dish without it, so I recommend keeping that in there. The mint is a perfect finishing touch. Delicious!
