This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

nutrition data
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

I let this sit overnight so it marinates but then I drain it mostly before serving (give it a good stir the drain so it's still moist but not drippy).
