Drop bars for big hands?

We've been getting some miles in on our new-to-us Cannondale. Its setup for the road, with drop bars front & rear. I like the drop bars, and particularly riding on the drops. However, my hands don't fit very well. I'm usually trying to grab the diagonal-ish portion below the brake levers, but my hands are too wide, so the grip isn't very comfortable. Anyone run into this kind of problem? Can you recommend bars with a longer 'diagonal' section under the brake levers?
