Directions
Crock Pot Fondue Italiano, I am compiling appetizer recipes for a 40th birthday party I am helping to organize I have not tried this one, but it sound interesting , My soon-to-be mother-in-law made this recipe for us on Christmas Eve in 1978 It was a big hit As newlyweds in 1979, she gave us the recipe and a fondue set Ever since then, it has become a Christmas Eve tradition in our family to have Fondue Italiano Three kids and 35 years later, the recipe has changed a bit We use a jar of spaghetti sauce instead of the envelope of spices and plain tomato sauce The red wine has given way to grape juice some years Now that one daughter is a vegan and one a vegetarian, the cheeses and the meat have been swapped out for their soy equivalents With that the kids are all out of the house, I may go back to the original recipe, although using low fat cheese and low fat spaghetti sauce and soy meat reduces the calories and fat grams substantially without losing the flavor In fact, I like not having to drain away the grease when use soy meat Throw in a teaspoon of vegan beef flavored bouillon powder if you want The main thing is: ENJOY!, My soon-to-be mother-in-law made this recipe for us on Christmas Eve in 1978 It was a big hit As newlyweds in 1979, she gave us the recipe and a fondue set Ever since then, it has become a Christmas Eve tradition in our family to have Fondue Italiano Three kids and 35 years later, the recipe has changed a bit We use a jar of spaghetti sauce instead of the envelope of spices and plain tomato sauce The red wine has given way to grape juice some years Now that one daughter is a vegan and one a vegetarian, the cheeses and the meat have been swapped out for their soy equivalents With that the kids are all out of the house, I may go back to the original recipe, although using low fat cheese and low fat spaghetti sauce and soy meat reduces the calories and fat grams substantially without losing the flavor In fact, I like not having to drain away the grease when use soy meat Throw in a teaspoon of vegan beef flavored bouillon powder if you want The main thing is: ENJOY!
