Pasta dishes are one of my all-time favorite go-tos when I have a taste for something thats hearty and filling. Pasta is a comfort food that's pretty difficult to mess up and you can really get creative with them. For this dish, I used Mafaldine pasta which is in the ribbon family. I also used Grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Did you know that this is a legally protected class of cheese that can only bear the name is if the entire process of making the cheese took place in a specific region of Italy? According to parmigianoreggiano.us, it must also include only three natural ingredients that have been used for over 900 years and must be aged for at least 12 months before it can be sold in stores! This cheese lends to the unique and complex flavor of this dish but can be a little pricey however you can substitute with a simple grated parmesan as well.

Red Velvet Shrimp & Grits Red velvet cake is one of my all time favorites. I especially love red velvet waffles. Shrimp and grits is also one of my breakfast/brunch favorites so I thought how cool would it be to combine the two? I like my grits with sugar but I also like them on the savory side so this was a win win combination for me. With a little added heat from the shrimp, the dish balanced out perfectly. Spicy Fried Shrimp: Old Bay or Lawry's Seasoning 2 Eggs Spicy Brown Mustard (or regular) Hot sauce Flour or pre-seasoned fish-fry breading mix Season Shrimp (lightly if using pre-seasoned breading). Combine with 2 eggs, hot sauce and mustard. Let sit for about 10-15 minutes. Toss in breading and deep fry for about 5-8 mins (until golden brown) Maple butter cream cheese: Butter Maple syrup Cream cheese Melt butter almost completely, combine with softened cream cheese. Stir in maple syrup. Sweet & Savory Red Velvet Grits: I'd normally say measure with love but grits are the exception! 1/2 cup Instant Grits 3/4 cup Carnation Milk 1/2 cup Heavy Cream Tbs Hershey Cocoa 1 1/2 Cups Chicken stock 2 tbs butter 6-8 drops Red food coloring 1 tsp Thyme 1 tsp Paprika Pinch of Sea Salt Shredded white mild cheddar cheese Pancetta Fry pancetta and set aside. Bring carnation milk, heavy cream, chicken stock, butter, thyme and paprika to a simmer, then add grits slowly. Stir constantly. Once it begins to thicken add Cocoa, food coloring and sea salt. Stir constantly. Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheddar cheese. Top with pancetta and desired amount of maple butter cream cheese, and serve with shrimp. Drizzle some maple syrup over the dish if desired.
