I loved this Italian Pasta Bake and the Tiramisu when we sampled it at Maceys. I am going to try some at home soon. I will let you know how it turns out. . . It seems so quick and easy and affordable. Thanks for all the great recipes. We love to go to the Savory Selections presentations. We have gotten so many good ideas and so many good deals too.
