Answer 2

Three Cheese Baked Pasta

serves 12

INGREDIENTS

1 pound uncooked pasta
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
6 1/2 cups tomato pasta sauce
6 ounces provolone cheese, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups sour cream
6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Drain.

Meanwhile, cook ground meat and onion in a skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until meat is browned. Stir in pasta sauce, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer the ingredients in the prepared baking dish as follows: half of the cooked pasta, all the provolone cheese, all the sour cream, half of the sauce mixture, remaining pasta, mozzarella cheese, and remaining sauce mixture. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.

Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until bubbly.


this is so yummy and would go with any veggie.

Answer 3

FETTUCINE ALFREDO

(4 servings)


8 oz. medium egg noodles


1 cup Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup heavy cream

pepper to taste

1/2 cup butter

Chicken Stir Fry
1/3 cup sliced celery
1/3 cup sliced onion
1/3 cup sliced bell pepper
1/3 cup sliced pea pods
1/3 cup bean sprouts
1/2 cup cubed tofu
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/3 cup sliced cabbage
1 cubed chicken breast
1/4 cup chopped scallions
3 cloves garlic

Start by getting all of the ingredients laid out and ready to go. Don't use as much veggies as I show in the picture here. I got carried away a bit. You'd never be able to eat all that. Other items I sometimes add are broccoli, sweet red peppers, or carrots. Be sure to have the sauce ingredients mixed and ready. Also cook some rice to serve this over. Or serve it over noodles, that's good. Or whatever. Just don't serve it over potato salad. That's very bad.
In a separate pan saute the chicken in 1/4 tsp sesame oil. Half way though, press in the garlic. If you are using mushrooms, add them a few minutes before the chicken is done. Mushrooms won't stir fry well. Take off the heat and set aside.
Separate the veggies. Put everything but the tofu, bean sprouts, and scallions in a bowl and have at hand. Use a clean steel (not non-stick) pan to stir fry the veggies. Add 1/4 tsp olive oil, and put it on high heat until the oil starts smoking a little. Toss the veggies in the bowl into the pan and stir quickly for less than a minute. About 30 seconds for the amount I use here. Push everything to the side of the pan and turn off the heat.
Pure in the sauce and stir quickly until it thickens. Mix the veggies in and then add the cooked chicken, tofu, scallions, and bean sprouts. Mix everything together and serve over rice. One critical garnish is the crispy Chinese noodles which I forgot to buy for this meal. Don't forget those. Hee hee.

Southwestern-Style Meat Loaf
1 pound ground beef, lean
3/4 to 1 pound ground veal
1 egg
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 can (approx. 4 1/4 ounces) chopped ripe olives
1 can (4 ounces) chopped mild green chile pepper
1 cup corn kernels
1/2 cup salsa, plus more for topping
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
PREPARATION:
Combine all ingredients except topping in a bowl and combine until blended. A wire potato masher works well for mixing meatloaf. Pack into a loaf pan and bake at 350° for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Serves 8.

Answer 4

Why not make an orange sauce?

You'll need some heavy cream if you don't have it (and some parmesean):

- Mince garlic and sweat in a tablespoon of olive oil
- Add chicken to the pan, browning over a medium heat
- Remove chicken and set aside to rest, add red sauce to pan
- Once sauce is heated, stir in one half pint of heavy cream
- Add a generous amount of parmesean cheese to the sauce
- Chop chicken and add it back to the pan
- Simmer entire dish to incorporate all the flavors.
- Check sauce for taste, consider adding more basil, oregano, black pepper, or cream depending on preferred taste.
- Toss with pasta and serve with a side of broccoli.
