Download "The Celebrity Italian Table Cookbook" to help MANNA FoodBank.

Barilla, the world's number one pasta maker, and America's Second Harvest—The Nation's Food Bank Network have partnered again in the fight against hunger with the launch of "The Celebrity Italian Table Cookbook." This marks the second annual call on pasta lovers to join Barilla and America's Second Harvest to help those in need.

Renowned chef Mario Batali, entertaining expert David Tutera developed six three-course meals and table settings inspired by Hollywood celebrities Marisa Tomei, Debra Messing, Stanley Tucci, Chris Daughtry and Natalie Portman, which can easily be recreated at home.

Since 1997, Barilla has been a supporter of America's Second Harvest donating over 5 million pounds of pasta. Donations are distributed among more than 200 member food banks serving all 50 states, the District of Colombia and Puerto Rico. The cookbook initiative allows Barilla to continue their desire to support hunger relief in the United States.
