My wife got this recipe from our local farmers market in Peachtree City, GA. She immediately took some of my tomatoes and made it. It is OUTSTANDING! My wife made three changes: We did not have horseradish, so she did not use any (plus I don't like horseradish), she put a slice of mozzarella cheese on each English muffin (use your favorite), and she added a lot more garlic to the puree.
