Fun Times with Decolady!

Several years ago, I was asked to decipher a recipe for an online friend...Becky and I talked and decided to meet at Romano's Macaroni Grill. We ordered the appetizer Mushroom Ravioli and set out on our quest! This is the recipe that we derived from our tastebuds! Such fun as we identified the mushrooms, flavors in the sauce!
