Truly easy, enough for 2 lbs. of pasta, but easily halved. I like my vodka sauce with some spice, so I soaked several dried hot red peppers for a few days in the vodka, I had a whole tomatoes which I pureed in the blender for a beautifully smooth sauce. I didn't realize that the recipe specified heavy cream, and I had bought light cream and it was fine. Be sure to top your pasta with grated cheese.

Panettone II

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2012

My loaf turned out too dry, and too dense for panettone. It looked beautiful, but lacked the flavor of a real Italian panettone. The smallest setting on my bread machine is for a 2 lb. loaf. The crust came out with a very pleasant color, but the bread did not have the desired texture. I'm new with a bread machine, and I welcome any suggestions.

Chicken Satay

Reviewed: Sep. 15, 2012

This is an easy recipe, and my guests raved about it. I used chicken tenderloins, one per skewer, which is fast and easy. I nuked the marinade and it thickened beautifully and it made a delicious sauce.

This is an outstanding lentil soup, and even acceptable to my vegan friends. It has lots of flavor and is a very healthy and hearty dish. Thank you for sharing this with us, Diana.

Sausage and Cornbread Dressing

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2006

This was the most outstanding accompanimemnt to our Thanksgiving turkey. We opted for a sweet Italian turkey sausage, and used a poultry seasoning instead of purchasing all the individual spices. This is far more flavorful than any plain bread stuffing I've ever had.
