Please no baked ziti.  If you have to resort to a jarred sauce, ground beef, pasta all baked into a casserole, just get good takeout.  [/quote] I’m not the PP but if you’re going to turn your nose up at baked ziti then don’t come. I make a vegetarian baked ziti every other week. It’s easy and everyone in the house eats it. [/quote]

Do you at least make your own sauce?[/quote]

This is such a typical DCUM remark. [/quote]

Not really.  It is rude to have company over for dinner and put zero effort into a meal.  Jarred sauce plus pasta, and a bag of shredded cheese,  baked it the oven is a total cop out.  Just order good take you can’t cook or don’t want to be bothered. [/quote]

NP, but I thought the point of having company over for dinner was to enjoy their company over a meal, emphasis on enjoying the company.  Making your own pasta sauce is a PITA (having done it).  I’d rather hang out with people who aren’t going to stress over the perfect meal.  If I want gourmet, I’ll go out to eat.[/quote]

Then have them over for drinks if you just want their company without stressing over food.  But to invite company over for dinner then serve a concoction of boxed and jarred stuff isn’t very good hospitality.  [/quote]

It's rude to turn your nose up at what your host is serving. Your job is to be a good guest, not a food critic.[/quote]
