A wonderful Italian neighbor showed me how to make this slow cooker pork cacciatore recipe after I commented on how good it made the neighborhood smell when she had her windows open when she made it. This American-Italian term refers to food prepared hunter-style, with mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, various herbs, and sometimes wine. I found adding cheese gave it something special; it also made it mine.

Clam Sauce with Linguine
This is a super fast and easy recipe. One of my favorites. Even my kids love it. Though sometimes I use 1 1/2 pounds of noodles. Fettuccine can also be used. Tastes even better with fresh baked rolls or French bread and a garden salad. For the special occasion have a nice glass of red wine with it.
