Shepherd's Pie
ReplyDeleteIngredients:
1 lb ground hamburger
1/2 pkg Stove Top Stuffing (any flavor)
Mashed Potatoes (instant or favorite recipe)
4 oz grated cheese (or more)
3 green onions, chopped
3 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 plum tomato, chopped
Preheat the oven to 350. Pour the 1/2 box of stove top stuffing in a medium size bowl. Pour enough warm water to almost cover. After the water is soaked into the stuffing, mix in the meat. Spread the meat mixture onto a foiled lined pan in the shape of your final dish. (I usually use a pie dish so I free form shape it into a circle) Cook for 15 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer the meat into the pie dish and cover with the mashed potatoes. Cover with onions and bacon and cheese. Cook until the cheese melts. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the tomatoes on top. Serve with salad and enjoy.
Never Fail Pie Crust
ReplyDelete2 1/2 c flour
1 c shortening (butter flavor)
1 tsp salt
1 egg, beaten

Mix together flour, shortening and salt. Cut in shortening with pastry blender until clumps are about the size of large peas. Blend together egg, cold water and vinegar. Add to flour mixture and mix lightly with a fork. Roll out, place in pie pan and fill and flute as desired. Keep pie crust from getting soggy by rubbing egg white, slightly beaten, on bottom and sprinkle with flour. Bake pie shell at 400 degrees for 7 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 2 crusts.

Yummy Spaghetti
ReplyDeleteAdd the following to your choice of spaghetti and sauce (GO PREGO) to make a more complete meal.
Ingredients:
Olive Oil (or Vegetable Oil)
1 Red Bell Pepper, sliced into strips
1 Green Bell Pepper, sliced into strips
1 Yellow Bell Pepper, sliced into strips
1 Orange Bell Pepper, sliced into strips
1/2-1 onion sliced into strips (depends on how oniony you want it)
1-2 garlic cloves minced (depends on how garlicky you want it)
1 pound Mild or Hot Italian Sausage
Preheat oven to 350. Get a cookie sheet with the high edges (not the ones with no lip on the edge). Poor a good amount of oil into the pan and place sausage on it. Rub each piece of sausage with oil, covering it. Cook in oven 20 minutes on each side (40 minutes total). When they are done slice into little circles.
While the sausage is in the oven heat about 2 tablespoons olive oil in a pan on medium heat. Add Garlic and saute until garlic is just brown. Add Onion and Bell Pepper. Saute for about 20 minutes, or until veggies are to desired consistency. Add sausage and about a cup full of sauce to de-glaze the pan (mix sauce in and then rub the pan bottom to get all the nice juices up off it). Serve on top of spaghetti.
