Parmesan Pointers

When a recipe calls for shredded Parmesan cheese, use the cheese found in bags in the grocery store dairy section. Shredded Parmesan is often used in salads or soups where the shreds make a pretty garnish. If grated Parmesan is called for, use the finely grated cheese sold in containers with shaker/pourer tops. This type works well in lasagna and casseroles. (You can substitute either shredded or grated Parmesan in equal proportions in your favorite recipes.) If you decide to buy a chunk of Parmesan cheese and grate your own, be sure to use the finest section on your grating tool. You can also use a blender or food processor. Simply cut the cheese into 1-inch cubes and process 1 cup of cubes at a time on high until finely grated.

Light-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

I also added asparagus that had been tossed in EVOO and garlic to the dish and it was simply amazing! Used a little less mayo and tad more italian blend cheese, it was devine!

I was very skeptical about this recipe. I had made this recipe before with only Parmesan and mayo. Fear not! This was very good... very filling and very rich. I got full very quickly but really enjoyed it. This is definitely getting added to the rotation to break up the fish I typically make. Low carb friendly!

I made this for dinner along with Green Beans with Walnuts. Hubby said it was excellent and wondered where I got the recipe. There is only one answer for that. "Taste of Home" I might cut back on the mayo next time. Lots of sauce left over.
