Baked Rigatoni with Bechamel Sauce
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis This is a great side dish or main dish!
6 servings 55 min 25 min prep

Bechamel sauce
1/2 cup unsalted butter
10 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 quart whole milk, at room temperature
1 pinch fresh nutmeg
sea salt
white pepper
1 cup grated fontina
1/2 lb thinly sliced prosciutto, julienned
1 lb dry rigatoni pasta
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Bechamel sauce: In a 2 quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the flour and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Always stirring, gradually add the milk and continue to whisk until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Simmer until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
This will take approximately 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg, 1/2 cup fontina, prosciutto and season with salt and white pepper.
Set aside.
In a large pot, bring to a boil 6 quarts of salted water.
Add the rigatoni and cook for about 5 minutes.
Since you will be cooking the pasta a second time in the oven, you want to make sure the inside is still hard.
Drain in a colander.
Return pasta to the pot and pour in bechamel sauce.
Using a wooden spoon, mix well until all the pasta is coated with the sauce.
Into a greased 13 by 9-inch baking dish, pour the pasta with cream sauce.

Dot the top with diced butter and bake in oven for 25 minutes or until bubbling and the top is golden brown.

An adult themed toy party means adult themed titles to ordinary foods, such as:

1. Hot Artichoke and Crab Dip with blue corn tortilla chips
2. Asparagas, crisp tender, wrapped in prosciutto
3. Halibut fillets with a dijon wine sauce with capers
4. Steak au poivre
5. Pomme Frittes (very thin, crisp french fries with kosher salt and/or minced fresh garlic or parmesan cheese)
6. Fresh strawberries with sour cream and brown sugar to
dip them in.

Titles might include:

"Kisses in the Moonlight"
"The French Tickler"
"Nibbles and nips"

and so on, you can use your imagination!

cant go wrong with finger foods for a healty snackable try marinating cherry or grape tomatos in itailan dressing along with asparagus *cut in half* and other seasonable veggies like squash broccilli and all that then roast it in your oven till the tomatos are crinkley and the veggies are tender serve in seprate dishes or make a display. tasty and healthy. if there are going to be booze try having slaty and sweet snacks on hand kettle corn and crustinis sread with creamcheese and a little slice of proshutto or goat cheese with a little drizzle of orange blossom honey those are both really popular at the restraunt.

I personally would keep it 'simple and subtle'!
A tray of cannelloni with a rich cheesy filling covered in tomato and basil sauce.
Hot sausage rolls (covered with pastry)
Guacamole with freshly cut veggies like carrot sticks, peppers, broccoli for dipping.
A mixture of asparagus rolls and club sandwiches.
For desert a simple 'Booze Log' ( Hard ginger biscuits soaked in either brandy, rum or a desert wine and put together with whipped to form a log, covered in chocolate sprinkles)
Bonn appetite!
Hope this helps, good luck! :)

here is an idea that my friends an i do, every month one of us host a party with a country theme. japan = sushi, Italy = pasta, France = cheese and wine. then we decorate with the country in mind. not only is it fun but we learn different recipes that we can try with our families later.
