This is another recipe that I have baked over the years that I cannot remember where the recipe came from. This one is different as it isn't overloaded with cheeses.

    This is one great dish! It comes together in less than 1/2 hr. and is in the oven ready to go in no time. The thing that takes the longest is boiling the water for the pasta. I really enjoyed and will be making in the future often. I liked how the fact that the bread crumbs were added and it kind of pulled everything together. Thanks Nana! Made for Spring PAC 08.
