Well, I ask you.

I was wiaitng for hordes of people to come and tell the OP that TPB is disgusting, that she should grow her own pine nuts and to make own pesto for her little cherubs.

There were just a few sensible posts talking about TPB.

No rows.
No snidey comments.
Didn't kick off.

What is MN coming to.

Had you started a thread about sausage pasta, there would have been an uproar.

I am so let down by this place.

Some therads are so boring.

Nigel Slaters recipe is absolutely delicious and always Penne with Sausage when I eat in Italian Restaurants. It is a proper meal imvho.

Tuna Pasta Bake though, mings.

I make awesome sausage pasta. With onion, tinned mussels and cheese.

Don't Americans make Tuna Casserole as well though? Yuk.

Just googled Tuna Casserole and it is, in fact, Tuna Pasta Bake.
