Fun fact: Tetrazzini is an American classic comfort food believed to be named after the famous opera star Luisa Tetrazzini in California in the early 1900’s. This dish is often baked casserole-style. This version; however, is made on top of the stove in one large pot making it an easy choice for a weeknight dinner.
