Mussels with Tomato and Garlic image

mmmmm mussels, I prefer cultivated mussels because they don't have all the sand and gritty stuff that the regular ones do (cleaning is a breeze). Serves 4 as an appetizer or two for lunch...

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually serve it with some crusty bread or rice. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often add chopped bell peppers, onions, or zucchini to the sauce.

This is my go-to recipe for mussels. It's so easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. I usually double the recipe because it disappears so quickly. I also like to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little extra spice.

I'm not usually a big fan of mussels, but this recipe changed my mind. The mussels were cooked perfectly, tender and plump, and the tomato-garlic sauce was incredibly flavorful. I served it with some crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce. D
