As I do not own a bread machine, I adapted this recipe to make in my KitchenAid stand mixer using the dough hook. I kept the igredients basically the same, with the exception of adding 1 1/2 Tbs. honey. I baked it in a 9" x 5" loaf pan.

My version of this classic Italian dish. This is a very interesting recipe. Actually I've tried this already and I was very impressed by its taste. Try this too so that you will experience the goodness of this dish.

The classic German dessert, buttery and rich with apples, raisins and almonds.

Didn't have marsala so I made a quick red-wine pan sauce using shallots, red wine and a bit of chicken stock and was able to use the brown bits in the skillet and added a touch of butter for a bit of sheen. Also I seasoned the chicken breasts with salt and pepper as well as the spinach with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Very colorful and tasty.

This quick, easy and delicious Italian-style side dish is perfectly cooked. Broccoli is seasoned with olive oil and garlic, and finished with a touch of parmesan.
