Sauteed Fennel with Quick Tomato Sauce and Parmesan

This was excellent. We love fennel - and it was SO fresh and delicious. We made this with orzo because that was the closest to the pasta called for (fusilli or other short, curly types) that I had on hand. Will make again.

Recipe called for 2 small bulbs about 1 1/2 pounds. Like many things, fennel has gotten larger over the years. One bulb at Kroger was a little over a pound. We just bought one and I don't think it sacrificed any taste or pleasure.

Recipe called for 2 cups drained canned whole tomatoes. One 14.5 ounce can was perfect, no measuring needed.

This cookbook is wonderful, and I'll be going to it more and more that we are eating less and less meat.
