My thoughts:

Someone mentioned Trader Joe's selling a frozen cauliflower shell pasta casserole "Cauliflower & Cheesy Pasta Shells" that they liked precisely it kept selling out before they could acquire their hands on it. I googled every bit good every bit constitute a moving icon that showed the ingredients every bit good every bit persuasion I could pretty easily construct that at abode from scratch every bit good every bit utilisation upwards ingredients I had on manus for recipes I had planned for those dark days afterwards my married adult human melted our oven controls. I had ricotta for an eggplant dish that never materialized, Italian blend cheese for the same dish, half a box of pasta I had earmarked for the shrimp salad I never made every bit good every bit about random cauliflower all taking upwards interplanetary space inward my fridge. I took about liberties every bit good every bit added celery every bit good every bit parsley for about coloring (and to utilisation them up!) every bit good every bit capers because I dearest capers with a fervent passion.

I did not grow upwards inward a casserole eating identify unit of measurement of measuring (unless y'all lot count mac every bit good every bit cheese) every bit good every bit have got never had a casserole anyone precisely I have got made (unless y'all lot count crab dip) every bit good every bit thus I'm e'er a niggling nervous how they testament turn out (am I missing about crucial measuring or ingredient?) precisely I genuinely enjoyed this one! It was flavorful every bit good every bit hearty every bit good every bit I intend would alive on welcome at whatsoever table. It has an Italian bent to it, precisely I intend it would fifty-fifty function alongside traditional Thanksgiving dishes side by times side week. You could fifty-fifty construct it the dark before every bit good every bit alone pop it inward the oven spell the turkey rests before carving, alone bring attending to permit it come upward upwards closer to room temperature before baking to speed upwards the cooking 4th dimension every bit good every bit to avoid the dish nifty due to thermal shock.
