This recipe celebrates some of my all-time favorite ingredients – wild mushrooms and dinosaur kale. Plus, in lieu of fresh pasta sheets, we are going to get tricky and boil(!) some no boil lasagna sheets. Craziness, but it gets you a weekend-tasting meal on a week night.

If someone told me that the secret to killer crockpot meatballs was a jar of grape jelly, I’d probably spit out my filet mignon and make a mental note to never trust a single recommendation that person ever made.

Plus, sweet and salty always want to get it on, so goat cheese just had to be there. I was ecstatic over the stars in my eyes and my love at first bite.

Tequila gets to be the star of the show, so you can set your watch and wait as I seek out a table to use as a platform for straight-up shakin’ it.
