Even I can be a culinary master. My mouth is so happy right now, and it's all my own doing. I made up a recipe as I went along, and...wow. Here's what I did:

I took jumbo pasta shells (I only ended up using half the box - what do you do with cooked pasta you don't use?) and filled them with a mixture of shredded imitation crab, spinach, feta cheese and diced fresh tomatoes (from Ericka's garden!). I layered a 9X13 pan with a white sauce seasoned with parsley flakes and a bit of salt, shredded mozzerlla cheese, the shells, provolone cheese, more white sauce, another diced tomato, and the rest of the shredded mozzeralla cheese. Then into the oven at 350 degrees for half an hour covered in foil, then uncover and bake until the cheese is browned.

I'm topping it off with a Blue Moon and fresh cantaloupe. Mmmm. Adding the tomato was a stroke of genius, if I do say so myself.

Mmmmm. Sounds good!

If you used exactly half the box of pasta, that means you have enough to make another batch another day.

I have a rough recipe in my head to try and cook, I just need to get around to buying the ingredients and then experimenting. I shall let you know how it goes, when I do [up]

And sounds good! (well the cheese bit not for me, but yumm on the tomato- I love tomato).

In conclusion- go team chef Amanda :-)
