This is different from your normal sweet potato pies, especially the crust and the cream cheese. My grandmother used to make it, then my mother and her sisters made it for many years. Now that I've moved away from New York and are no longer with them, I make it for my girlfriend's family. Eat it with Thanksgiving dinner, just like we did! Enjoy!

Classic Veal Marsala
This classic veal marsala recipe is similar to the veal pesada at a popular Florida restaurant. I've spent extensive time eating my way through Italy and modified this recipe from a restaurant in Bagnione, Italy. I've substituted a combination of low-salt beef and chicken broth in place of veal stock; pounded pork medallions are also commonly substituted.
