Ciao Italia
Secondi Rapidi - Fast Main Courses (#1607)
What can you cook when there's no time to cook? Busy FoodStar Producer Rich Gore visits Mary Ann to get some tips and she teaches him how to make Beefsteak with Tomato Sauce and Oven-roasted Pork Tenderloin with Balsamic and Blackberry Reduction. And then she gets some "secret" ingredients from the fridge and challenges Rich to create a dish of his own. Unforgettable? Yes. Edible? That's another story.

Program Description: Mary Ann Esposito, host of the longest-running cooking show on public television, travels around the United States and Rome, Italy in search of recipes that can be prepared in thirty-minutes or less for a busy audience that has time to enjoy great Italian food but doesn' t always have time to prepare it "the old way."
