  1. This was easy and a nice change. Served with grilled Lobster tails and Snow Crab legs for Valentines Day, and it paired well. Although my son didn't seem to like it as much as I thought he would, but I will make it again.
     
  2. This was easy to put together and tasted good. I only used about 2 T parmesan (that was all I had left), which was ok because I served it with Recipe #190207 and I don't think I would have paired well with the right amount of cheese. This did need salt and I would have liked a set amount mentioned. I did use chicken broth.
     
  3. This was really good and so easy...kindof like a fancy mac and cheese...
     
  4. This was a very easy recipe and very tasty. I did this in a cast iron pan so just put that into the oven using just one dish. Served with Recipe #20048. Great meal.
     
  5. This has a real stick to your ribs comfort root quality. Very savory and filling.
