INSTRUCTIONS
Using scissors cut sun-dried tomatoes in small pieces. Put in a bowl and cover with hot water. Allow to stand 10 minutes. Drain. In a blender or food processor, combine milk, ricotta, garlic, seasonings and Parmesan. Process until smooth. Pour sauce into a heavy saucepan and warm over low heat. DO NOT BOIL. Saut mushrooms if using fresh; keep warm. Cook pasta. Drain. Mix all together (sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, broccoli, mushrooms and pasta. Bake 30 to 40 minutes in a 9 x ** I used 1 small cayenne, ground, and 1 tsp. no-salt seasoning. NOTE: I put sun-dried tomatoes in blender. Works okay but needs extra milk; 1 to 2 Tbs. If made ahead - bake and extra 10 minutes. It can be eaten without baking - but I like it better baked. Can also saut some shrimp and sprinkle on top before serving if you have SAD'S to serve.
