What are you cooking or baking today?

I haven't either. Will be interested to read @Knight's review.
We've had this a few times & modified the recipe to our liking.

Used pepper jack cheese instead of red pepper flakes & parmesan. Get the same heat contrast but like the better gooey texture. Got the pepper jack slices at Albertsons when on sale for $1.47 only use about 4 ounces.

Pasta a little more than usual meal amount, break in half just seems to cook better. Just barely cover the ingredients because less water helps to thicken the sauce. 1st. time we tried this the amount of water used made the sauce to liquidly.

Pasta sauce we like is Paul Neuman's marinara sauce.

Have fresh basil but prefer Albertsons spring mix added last. Cover the corning ware we cook it in to wilt that mix. Use a lot of the spring mix because it wilts down to seem almost not there.

Was reading some recipes in a cookbook that I've had for a long time & seen one for salmon patties using canned salmon. Neither of us like fish at all so I substituted canned chicken instead.

It didn't come out bad, but I need to work on the seasonings to liven it up a little. Now I have another way of using canned chicken besides dips & chicken salad. Also had roasted cauliflower with a side salad. Key Lime frozen yogurt for dessert.
 
Going through my recipe files for something using ground beef, I found a Betty Crocker recipe with a cornmeal topping. It looked pretty; it was dry and boring. I kept thinking it needed a leavening agent. That recipe is now history. We only ate half so I’ll have to doctor it up. Waste not, want not.
