Product Description
Meet the Candellano family: Angela, the matriarch, Tony the oldest son and town sheriff, Nick and Paul, the twin brothers with completely different personalities, and Carla, the beautiful daughter whom Mama is still trying to fix up. And though Mama's brood is all grown up, they still gather every Sunday around her kitchen table-where anyone who falls for a Candellano had better be prepared to share laughter, love...and the best lasagna in town...
FINDING YOU
Carla Candellano has faced a tragedy she'd like to put behind her, but no one has been able to penetrate the wall she has built around herself-until she meets six-year-old Reese Wyatt. Reese hasn't spoken since her mother died last year, and it's friendship at first sight for Carla and little Reese. But it's the girl's worried father, Jackson, who arouses Carla's curiosity, and passion, in ways she never imagined...
KNOWING YOU
Ever since Stevie Ryan was a young girl, she was in love with her best friend Carla's older brother Nick Candellano. But Nick had to complicate things by growing up gorgeous-and breaking Stevie's heart. Now she's convinced that forgetting him is the way to go. And it's working out fine...until she and Nick's brother, Paul, spend one sultry night together. Has the right brother been under Stevie's nose all along?

You’re invited to dinner at the Candellano’s home...
Mama Candellano’s Lasagna
Mama’s pasta sauce remains a closely guarded secret...so, feel free to use whichever sauce you prefer. (But if you use jar sauce, don’t tell Mama).
Grease a 13x9x2 glass baking dish and set aside
1 lb. lasagna pasta
2 lbs. Ricotta cheese (part skim is good!)
½ cup Parmesan cheese
2 raw eggs
3 tbs. Dried parsley flakes
shredded Mozzarella cheese
Cook the lasagna in boiling water until it’s nearly done, (al dente will make the lasagna easier to slice and serve later) Drain and cool the pasta by running cold water over it. In a separate bowl, mix Ricotta cheese, Parmesan, parsley flakes and the eggs, stirring until well blended.
Make one layer of lasagna noodles in the greased baking dish, then add a layer of the cheese mixture, keeping it thick, but evenly spread. Ladle sauce on top, covering the cheese and noodles. Then repeat until you end with a layer of lasagna noodles. Ladle sauce over the top, then sprinkle with shredded Mozzarella.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling like crazy. Let the Lasagna cool for ten minutes to make the slicing and serving a little easier!
Mangia!
