I love traditional holiday food–turkey and dressing, ham and marshmallow sweet potatos, and I get my fill between Thanksgiving and New Year’s. But in my family, we have a Christmas Eve tradition of Italian food. Spaghetti. Lasagna. Ravioli. And I found this quick-to-fix ravioli casserole that will just hit the spot this year.

As always, click over to MY FOOD AND FAMILY for all the nutritional details. I was delighted to discover that mine is not the only family to indulge with Italian goodness during the holidays. Evidently, it’s a thing at the fire stations at DFW airport too. At least according to Kit Carson, the heroine of CRASH & BURN. She’s quite proud of introducing the tradition to the ARFFs of DFW. Good thing her mate, Homeland Security Agent Derek Alexander likes the way she cooks. 😉 If you’d like to read their story, you can grab it for free with Kindle Unlimited or buy it for a whole $2.99.

Ooo, that sounds yummy. And it gives me ideas for Christmas dinner. I was thinking lasagna, but maybe I’ll do something like this instead. Think think think.
I loved Crash and Burn! Then again, I love all your books. =oD
2020. I promise. New books! And let me know if you come up with a variation of this recipe. Inquiring minds (and tummies!) want to know. 😉
I was thinking tortellini, mushrooms, and alfredo sauce. If I do it, I’ll let you know.
Oooh! YUM! Yeah, definitely let me go. I’m a big fan of all those things. 🙂
