St. Louis Original Baked Mostaccioli
If you have been to a wedding in St. Louis you have had Mostaccioli. Some versions are good, some...well let's just say I hope you have avoided the versions that taste like canned tomato soup. This is not one of those, this, in my opinion is a little taste of heaven.
