This is a delicious and simple meal to get together. I made this for a quick hot lunch for DH, DD and myself. I followed the recipe as written except I used twice the amounts of cream and cheese for our personal tastes. Will definitely make this pasta dish again. Made for Spring PAC 2008. Thanks Sass for great recipe!!!!

I am a web producer and copy editor at an online newspaper.
Many of my favorite foods are down-home Southern comfort food like my grandmother and mother made, but I also live in an ethnically diverse area and have been able to learn a lot about different styles of cooking. I especially like Asian, Mediterranean and Indian food.
I'm working on learning to cook Indian food and I'm discovering that, like most traditional cuisines, it involves a lot of long complicated processes and a lot of intuition and background knowledge on the part of the cook. Hope I can begin to grasp some of that knowledge eventually.
