Kayotic Pasta Gratin
When I want to make the men in my life happy, I cook this. Okay, so it kinda makes me happy, too. What is it? Think of it as a combination between baked pasta and a gratin, sans the cream.

Spiked with pepper…
Creamy Chicken Casserole

Big plus for me; you can make it ahead of time, and it’s a soup based sauce rather than just heavy cream with a few floating mushrooms here and there. I love to come up with exotic recipes, it’s a…
