This was a wonderful recipe that I adapted a bit for our family's taste buds. I omitted the wine and the tomatoes and added half and half into the sauce. It turned out wonderful. I never would have thought about adding the romano cheese if it hadn't been for this recipe. I liked the artichokes as well. They added to the dish and put more vegetables into the meal. I served this over spaghetti. There was plenty of sauce for it. It probably helped that I added the cream. The crab added a richness to the dish, but it would be just as good without it.

I didn't have all the ingredients in the house and only used the crab, but it still turned out very good. I will definately try this one again! It was not 'saucy' enough to pour over rice or pasta for my taste. I served it with baked potatoes and steamed belgian endive with cheese sauce. Delish!

I made this exactly as the recipe states. Very good!
