| This is the recipe I get asked for the most. It is also the first Italian dish my mother in law taught me to make. I'd just given birth to our son and she came to help out. I sat and took notes and am now considered one of the best italian cooks in the area. Admittedly, given the limited number of Italians in Indiana that's not too hard :) This recipe is also the basis of our lasagna, stuffed shells and meatloaf recipes. |
