I'm in pure comfort food mode right now.

The weather has been ridiculously cold and snowy here in Minnesota and I want all the carbs while I'm cooped up in the house waiting very patiently for spring to arrive!

I've been busy making Crack Chicken and Rice Casserole, Magic Crust Custard Pie, Cheesy Chicken and Bacon Tater Tots and Creamy Zucchini and Carrot Soup. All of these posts are very old posts here on the blog, and they are now updated with new photos. Head on over and check them out!

Today's recipe is cheesy and creamy pasta goodness.

Meals like this remind me so much of my childhood. I remember eating casseroles or hotdish at home, family gatherings, parties and church potlucks.

We love our "hotdish" in Minnesota, and most of those recipes have been passed on from Grandma, to Mom and we now make them for our kids.

This recipe is one I created with ingredients I had on hand. When the temps are below zero, you get extra creative and try to make a meal out whatever you have.

Lucky for me, I stopped at my local Fresh Thyme yesterday and stocked up on some stuff, so I had a lot to work with.

I was super excited to see some great asparagus while shopping and wanted to do something different with it other that steaming or roasting.

When I cook a batch of pasta, I usually make extra so we can have another meal from it, quickly make buttered noodles or heat up some sauce to serve with the pasta.

This shortcut saves on cooking time, especially with recipes like this casserole. You can even prep the rest of the ingredients the night before, so all you have to do is mix and bake!

I absolutely loved the asparagus and bell pepper as the main veggies in this dish. They go great with the chicken and cheddar cheese. Every bite is packed with flavor from all these ingredients!
