Description
The recipe title sounds like a tongue twister, but it is delicious! This is my attempt at recreating a dish that was created and served at micheal's cafe in duncannon, pa by the late, great micheal sean kapp. It was my absolute favorite entree on the menu, but the flavors may be overwhelming to some so please proceed with caution. I prefer the complexity and this dish is what got me eating tomatoes and asparagus. I hope that you enjoy. (also, when i cook, i do not measure the ingredients so all measurements are approximate. Please adjust to you own tastes). This can also be served as a vegetarian entree by removing the meat and doubling the ravioli.
