"This recipe came from a fund-raising cookbook our neighborhood put together. It's very flavorful. Freezes well."

Ingredients: dried basil, havarti cheese...

"I love this recipe for busy nights, or at the end of a stressful day when we want easy comfort food. This is easy, but not cheap-tasting and is healthy. I use whole-wheat penne for the pasta, so I usually use a bit more tomato juice since whole-wheat pasta tends to need more liquid."

Ingredients: diced tomatoes, olive oil...

"This quick version of lasagna is bursting with flavor and easy to make. The Italian sausage and pepperoni add to this dish by giving it a pizza-like flavor. Feel free to use any jarred pasta sauce, or wow your tastebuds with my Grandma Shannon's Spaghetti Sauce recipe below! Enjoy!"

Ingredients: pepper, cottage cheese, eggs...

"If you like lasagna, you'll love this dish, and the addition of the red wine takes this over the top! (We're not wine drinkers, but it makes this dish "totally money", as my nephew would say.) Nary a single human being has crossed paths with it and NOT loved it. I like to cook the bacon and mushrooms separately first - and longer..."

Ingredients: chopped tomatoes, fresh basil leaves...

"This is my adaptation of a recipe in a Liquor Control Board of Ontario magazine. I usually serve it with Caesar salad & garlic bread and its always been given "2 thumbs up" by my friends & family. You can increase the heat by using hot sausages & adding more cumin - or cayenne or red pepper flakes - according to your own taste!

"This is a good way to get kids to eat eggplant. It doesn't have to be eggplant, either. I have made it with artichokes, and with capsicums (bell peppers) of different colours."

Ingredients: ziti pasta, pepper...

"I love the savory taste combo of kalamata olives and capers--can't get enough of it. If you aren't up for the heat, use mild Italian sausage or cut the fat with Turkey Italian sausage. If you want it a bit spicier--add a bit of crushed red chile flakes. I think the overall flavor is fairly mild and will probably add more capers and kalamata..."

Ingredients: chopped tomatoes, green bell peppers...

"I love the Penne Napoli you can get at Macaroni Grill. This recipe is as close as I can get, when I dont get a chance to eat out there. Hope you enjoy it."

Ingredients: diced tomatoes, fresh parsley...

"Pasta recipe that can be easily frozen. Use it for once-a-month-cooking (OAMC). The recipe makes enough for an 8x8 pan, double it for a 9x11 pan."

Ingredients: eggs, mozzarella cheese...

"A hearty, tasty dish with a little kick. It is meatless, but the Havarti cheese and Kalamata olives give it enough body to satisfy the carnivores in your family. I found this recipe in the Feb. 1995 issue of Bon Appetit. Make yourself a loaf of Rosemary Focaccia bread to go with it! Bon Appetit says this serves 4--that would be 4 HUGE servings. I make..."

Ingredients: dried basil, oil-cured olives...

Ingredients: pasta sauce, eggs...

"I got this recipe from another recipe site and although the base recipe was delicious I altered it according to my taste and added a few more spices. This is a great family meal that can be prepared in advance and frozen for a busy weeknight. It would also be a great dish to take to a potluck."

Ingredients: instant beef bouillon, italian tomato paste...
