Have you ever had prosciutto? I have seen it in recipes at restaurants and for one reason or another I steered clear of anything containing it. I’m not sure why but one thing I know for sure is I have been missing out. I have had it three times in the last month, at different parties, and I love it. One restaurant we went to made it themselves. The owner told us it takes one year, yes one year, to make. Crazy.

I honestly just threw this recipe together one night, and it was so good. You know it’s great when your toddler says “Mmmm” after literally every bite. It reminded me why I love, love, love casseroles! They’re a hit every time.
