"This soup is delicious!! I used fat free half and half instead of cream and it turned out wonderfully. I also used my immersion blender to puree and the consistency was velvety. I needed to add some salt and pepper, to taste. Highly recommend!""

"I increased the wine for a bit more sauce and served over angel hair pasta. Delicious, easy and my husband wanted to lick the plate!""

"Since we are not huge meat eaters, I omitted the sausage and increased the ground chuck to about 2 pounds. I also added about 1/3 cup red wine to the sauce and made it and the cheese mixture about 3 days in advance, leaving the beaten eggs out of the cheese mixture until right before assembly. I allowed both to come to room temp before assembling. My family said this was THE best lasagna they had ever had!!

"This was fantastic!! After seasoning the roast, I dredged it in flour before searing. The ensuing sauce was thick and flavorful. I substituted red wine for the water. The recipe doesn't say what size can of tomatoes to use so I used about 2/3 of a 28oz can and it seemed about right. I also put mine in the oven, after browning--350 degrees for the first hour and then 250 degrees for the next 4 hours, putting my veggies in about an hour before I wanted to serve it. I will never make pot roast any other way. My company raved!
