Quintessentially American, this soup looks for a long time like it's going to be terrible--then suddenly it pulls together at the end and is unexpectedly rich and satisfying. It was contributed by Pat and Elaine Young of Oregon, also quintessentially American and in the best of ways. Hardworking and gutsy, they've got a son in highschool, are putting a daughter through college--and still decided to make significant career changes as "40 somethings" to secure a better future in the long run. Elaine got the recipe from her sister.

Couscous-Stuffed Peppers with Basil Sauce Recipe : Giada De Laurentiis
Notes We've updated this classic dish while still keeping all the elements that people love: crisp broccoli, juicy chicken, and a tasty Parmesan sauce. By stuffing the chicken breasts we were able to cut down on the overall cheese in the dish while still maximizing flavor. A mixture of low-fat evaporated milk, broth and sherry with a touch of cornstarch makes a creamy sauce that tastes as rich as the full fat version. Ingredients
