Baked Ziti

 

Who doesn't love baked pasta...especially one this easy. 

 Ingredients: 

8oz cooked Ziti noodles

3/4 lb Ground beef or sausage, cooked with a garlic clove minced

1 1/4 Cups of Cottage Cheese

1 Egg

2 cups of Mozzarella cheese

1/2 Tbsp Parsley

Salt 

Pepper

1 Jar Marinara Sauce

Digging in!

Directions:
Mix Cottage Cheese, Egg, parsley, Salt and pepper.  In a separate bowl, mix together pasta, meat, and sauce.  Layer half of this mixture on the bottom of a greased dish. Top with cottage cheese mix, and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.  Layer another of the noodles.  Top with more cheese.  Cover with foil, and bake at 350F degrees for 25-30 min.  Take off foil and bake an additional 3 or so minutes to brown a bit of the cheese.   

I hope you like it.

This is the Circle blooms framed art on Anthropolgie for $698.  Shew....but I think this is something me and my little girl could make together!  I'm picturing a round foam brush, .25cents? and some paints I already have. $0.  And a sheet of paper....$0.01cents?  I think we can manage it. 

Which rug would you pick?

Homemade Sloppy Joes

So, normally, I'm not a Sloppy Joes fan.  Anyone mentions them, and all I can think is, what's on the side??...please say pasta! 

However, this recipe makes me want to eat them every week.

Ingredients:

1 1/2lbs Ground beef

1/4 Onion, diced

2 Cloves Garlic, minced 

3/4 Cup Ketchup

3/4 Cup Water

1 Tbsp. Brown Sugar

1 Tsp. Chili Powder

1 Tsp. Dijon Mustard

1/2 Tsp. Red Pepper Flakes

2 Dashes of Worcestershire Sauce

2 Tbsp. Tomato Paste

4 Dashes Tabasco Sauce

Salt and Pepper to taste

Butter

Rolls

Prep:

Brown ground beef till no longer pink. Drain most of fat and add onions and garlic. Cook for a few minutes.  Add the rest of the ingredients. Stir and cover. Simmer for 10-15 Minutes. 

In the meantime, butter rolls and toast on a frying pan. 

Spoon Joes onto the rolls. This recipe is great, 'cause you most likely will have all the ingredients on hand. Enjoy!
