I adapted a recipe from Jackie Olden's "Can We Cook" book. This is a delicious dish and fancy enough to serve at a dinner party. My family loves this dish. Definitely not a low fat recipe. This recipe is named after a soprano singer from Italy.

This was sooo yummy! My family loved it. As you can tell by the ingredients, as well as some of the other reviews, it is pretty rich-but so worth it! I didn't have any thyme to add as others suggested, but I definitely think that would be a yummy addition. Thanks for a great recipe!

Oh heaven! If you love garlic, add about 4 more cloves. I took Debber's advice and also added a tsp. of crushed thyme. I had to experiment to lower the fat and calorie content, so used fat-free half&half and it was perfect! I can't imagine how much richer it would be using cream. I also added a tsp. of garlic powder to the grated cheese topping and used whole wheat spaghetti. A bit time consuming, but worth every luscious bite. Thanks diner!

I'm in love! Why in the world have I NEVER made tetrazzini before? To think I've lived to be 50 years old and not have tasted something this good. I really need to have my head examined! I added 5 or 6 cloves of garlic which really kicked it up a notch I think, also a healthy pinch of crushed thyme. Yummy-ola! *Made for Aus/NZ Recipe Swap Sept 07*
