A super tasty but very rich Italian dish is Cannalloni. A condition for the real Italian taste is to use Italian products. Another condition is you must love cheese ;) because you use four types of cheese in this dish. This recipe (a slight variation on Gino D'Acampo's) is a big hit with the whole snazzie family. You should try it, we can recommend it whole heartedly!
