This is by far my favorite main dish casserole I made this year using some of my overabundance of squash from my first vegetable garden. It's creamy, delicious and, best of all, easy. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups cooked pasta (ruote, farfalle, penne, or really any kind of tubular or shaped pasta) |
1 (8 ounce) package imitation crabmeat |
1 (17 ounce) jar classico alfredo with sun dried tomatoes |
1 zucchini |
1 yellow squash |
1/2 cup diced onion |
1/2 cup portabella mushroom, diced |
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes |
1 tablespoon dried parsley |
2 cups part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded |
2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs |
2 teaspoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Slice the squashes and dice the mushroom and onion.
2. Combine the Alfredo sauce, pasta, crab, onions, mushrooms, squash, zucchini, parsley and pepper flakes in a large bowl and toss to coat.
3. Transfer mixture to a greased 13x9x2 baking dish and cover with cheese.
4. Cover and bake at 325°F for 35 minutes.
5. Toss bread crumbs and butter and sprinkle over casserole.
6. Bake uncovered an additional 5 to 10 minutes to brown.
