Don't download RSS articles

I need an RSS recipe that doesn't download the article itself.

For example, I want to have the title as the headline, but the body should have the RSS link tag and then the RSS description tag, not the article itself.

The body of the headline should look like:
Code:
(RSS LINK TAG)

(RSS DESCRIPTION TAG)
Is there any way to do this?

So, for RSS feeds where there's only a headline and a link, no body text, would there be a way to not have a body page, and just put the link in the main TOC?

This seems to have stopped working in the newest update. The generated mobi now just includes the RSS description without a link.
