Grammy's Overnight Lasagna
My Grammy's version of lasagna. Prepared the day before and left in the fridge overnight, it pops quickly into the oven and is on the table in no time. Sometimes I'll gussy it up with herbs and spices, but there is something nice and simple and homey about how Grammy made it. Easily halved or doubled!

This shrimp and corn chowder is hearty enough to serve as a first course or as an entrée. You may want to try a little hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco) when serving. It kicks it up a notch.
