this was really good. i made this for dd's spaghetti dinner bday party. i made this along with bruschetta and crostini. as another reviewer said...the lemon peel makes this special and gives a burst of flavor. i used a whipped cream cheese with chives and roasted garlic and herb flavored goat cheese. i also added lots of cracked black pepper. it was really nice because i was able to make everything up ahead of time and it was a cinch with the food processor. served it all together on the same platter just like the photo! thanks for sharing!! nice and easy appy!

I am originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota and moved to Ohio in 1978. It was quite a culture shock going from the city to living next to the Amish. I spend most of my time cooking, cleaning and caring for my four kids. I have abandoned cookbooks and now cook from favorite, wilted recipe pages and the internet. I fell in love with my Italian family recipes (Scavo, Rotella, Scalzo, Micelli, Grande, Gigliotti) and my Mom's homecooked meals.
