Cooking with wine

Hi Wendy,
I, too, love to cook with wine and sometimes I even add some to the food 🙂
! Maybe you should count it as a regular glass of wine as the grape juice
and sugars are still there. What are you making? Julie

It turned out to be not too bad with the wine - 7 pts. It's a recipe from Food Network's 30-Minute
Meals with Rachel Ray (I love that show!) called Pasta with Pumpkin and Sausage. I'm substituting
Boca (vegetarian) Italian sausage for the other kind, and I reduced the amount of pasta called for
to a more reasonable amount - 1/2 pound for 4 people as opposed to 1 pound. That's still more pasta
than I usually eat (now), but for point value, I used that amount.

If it turns out well, I'll post the recipe.
