This Mushroom Marsala Pasta Bake recipe by Smitten Kitchen combines the gourmet taste of marsala with the ease and convenience of a casserole (otherwise known as "dinnertime magic").
The interpretive recipe takes the original recipe for a mushroom marsala, and combines it with baked pasta. The rich mushroom sauce, al dente noodles, mozzarella and parmesan cheese elevates your typical baked pasta meal to that of a much more sophisticated dish -- albeit, one that can still be made in under an hour.
To make, use the pasta of your choice, fresh mushroom, yellow onion, dry marsala wine, butter, flour, chicken stock, cubed mozzarella and grated parmesan. Add salt and pepper to taste, and voila! You've got yourself an easy-to-prepare, everyday gourmet meal.
