This chicken chop suey recipe tastes very similar to the one at my favorite Chinese restaurant. There is a lot of chopping, but it's well worth the effort! We like it with noodles or vegetable fried rice.

Italian Crema Ice Cream (Gelato alla Crema)
Answering the question "What would vanilla ice cream taste like without any vanilla?," Italian "crema" ice cream (gelato alla crema) is exceptionally delicious not because of what's in the recipe, but rather what isn't. Ironically, it might be the best vanilla ice cream I've ever had. Without any other flavors in the way, all you taste is the sweet goodness of milk and cream, which I think is a revelation.
