Notes about this book

    Sausage & Broccoli Rabe Crostino [pg 83]: I made full sandwiches replacing the broccoli rabe with broccoli. For the filling, I minced the garlic (therefore leaving it in) & for the chile, I used diced Fresnos from my freezer and I added a good sprinkle of parmigiano. The toasted bottom bun had a bubbling, hot mix of the provolone + mozzarella & the top bun was run under the broiler with a smear of a basil, parm, garlic butter. With a simple green salad on the side, this was an awesome dinner.

    Beef Stew over Mashed Potatoes [pg 164]: I was around 4 oz short of beef for a 1/2 recipe so I added celery & mixed sweet peppers with other veg, chopped oven dried tomatoes with the stock etc & frozen peas at the end. We thought this was lovely served over her mashed potatoes (recipe on the same page).

    Nonna's Stuffed Peppers [pg 186]: I scaled this way back to make two 1/2's from 1 large pepper. I topped up a small amt of grd beef with hot Italian sausage meat & added ricotta in place of "a fraction" of an egg. The big deviation was that I vastly prefer to cook the meat filling /drain the fat before stuffing...rather than put raw meat into the peppers. I added grape tomatoes to the filling, we liked the fresh bread crumbs/fresh basil combo & the fontina was a nice touch. I gave the empty pepper 1/2s a head start in the oven & then baked the intact dish til the filling was hot. We enjoyed this beside a green salad with an assertive vinaigrette.
