Pasta with Broccoli and Garlic

I used a whole wheat blend of pasta/spaghetti. I cut back some on the olive oil and used smart balance blend instead of butter. I also only used 1 tsp of the crushed red pepper for my children's palate and it seemed fine. I usually save some of my pasta water as a way to decrease the stickiness of my pasta if it has to sit around while I am finishing some other part of the recipe, which I added and didn't seem to diminish the flavor of the dish. Everyone liked it.

Czarnina -- Polish Duck Soup

Your nutritional assessment of the czarnina recipe may be correct, but I question it's accuracy. An 8-oz bowl extrapolated from your figures would contain 742 calories and 42 g of total fat, and be rated at over 17 Weight Watcher points. I cannot help but wonder if you took into account the weight of the water, which would have been considerable and, if included, would have decreased nutritional values per unit weight. Also how did you determine values for the blood that was used? If water had, indeed, been factored in then this dish is truly a dieters nightmare!
