With this column based on the tastiest recipes from bed & breakfasts, dishes from the morning make a good deal of sense. However, many B&Bs serve more than just breakfast. Most feature an afternoon tea or cocktail hour, and a good portion offer lunch and dinner dining. This week we are pleased to share our first dinner recipe.
Roasted Red Pepper Linguini comes to us courtesy of Inn & Spa at Cedar Falls, which is located in Logan, Ohio. This inn has a restaurant on premises, which serves a delightful menu of gourmet fare. They have kindly shared their recipe for this delicious pasta entrée.
