Your Signature Dish

[PJ's Mom]

Every Christmas I'm asked by Justin's family to make "white trash" which is basically a white chocolate chex mix.

I love white trash! I eat tons of it every holiday season.

Oh, I always get asked to bake pies...the ones I've done have been apple, blackberry, pecan, custard, pumpkin...I think that's it so far. But, always a pie! And, there's this summer dish that I would always take to picnics, and, I never had any left to bring home. First you take pound cake slices and put them on the bottom and sides of the dish, then pour banana or vanilla pudding - with strawberries and bananas mixed in - into the dish. Then top it with decorative (but of course still edible!) slices of strawberries and bananas. If you use a clear dish, it looks really pretty, because you can see the slices of pound cake all around...the dish has to be tall enough for the pound cake slices, though. It's so yummy!!!

My signature dish has to be "pasta al forno" which is baked pasta.
Usually I use penne or rigatoni, both have ridges and hold up better, a very good homade ragu, ricotta and mozzarella cheeses.
