You basically toss everything in a pot and cook it until it’s all hot. You can also customize it with whatever else you may have on hand- minced garlic, sauteed green peppers, mushrooms, canned corn, canned green chilies, etc.
I like to serve it with shredded cheese and cornbread. (I make my cornbread from the boxed mix.) It all takes less than half an hour, and you have leftovers that taste even better the next day!

#1 ground beef
1small can tomato sauce
1 can tomato soup
1 pkg Lawrey’s Original Spaghetti Sauce Mix
1 small can mushrooms (optional)

Start cooking your favorite spaghetti (or linguini) in salted water. While this is cooking, brown your beef. Add tomato sauce, tomato soup, Lawery’s mix, and mushrooms. Cover and simmer until spaghetti is ready.
When serving, sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese or a blend of cheeses.
If the sauce is too thick for you, just add water. This is even better as a leftover!

Hope I have been of some help. It’s hard working with just the basics. Good luck!! And Merry Christmas!

Ingredients needed:
a splash of oil
a big potato
cooked sausage or any cooked meat, chopped (around 1/2-1cup)
1/2 can of green beans
1/2 cup of ketchup or leftover pasta sauce (optional)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
any sliced (4-5slices) or grated (1/2-3/4 cups) cheese
salt and pepper

Preparation: slice the potato thinly, dump into the saucepan, cover with water, add salt. Bring to boil and boil for 5 minutes, then drain (if your potatoe is cooked, skip the boiling, just slice it).
Add a splash of oil to the frying pan and turn the heat to high. Distribute the potato slices on the bottom, then spread the sausage or meat and green beans on top. Pour on the ketchup or pasta sauce if using. Pour the beaten eggs on top, season with salt and pepper. Cover with sliced or grated cheese (remember, while you are doing all this, the pan is on high heat and potatoes are browning).
Once covered with cheese, put the pan in the oven under a broiler for 7 min or until cheese gets bubbly.
Take out from the oven, let rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting.

Hope you like it!

1 box Zatarains Spanish Rice mix
1/2 lb ground sausage or hamburger
1/2 an onion, chopped, not minced
1-3 cloves garlic, minced (depending on your taste – I LOVE garlic)
1 can diced jalepeno tomatoes

Cook meat, garlic, and onions in your pot, drain any grease, then dump the rice, tomatoes and water into the pot, and cook according to directions. Dinner in a 1/2 hour… and man it’s tasty (especially if you like spice – hot italian sausage is great in it, and I like to add a splash of tobasco), plus you get your meat, starch, and veggies in one dish.

Or – really easy scalloped potatoes….

1 small ham steak, cut into cubes
3 medium white or red potatoes, peeled and sliced pretty thin
1 can not condensed cream of mushroom soup (I like progresso)
-parmesan cheese
-some milk
-flour & butter
optional – thinly sliced onions, carrots, or mushrooms

Spray a glass baking dish with cooking spray, and add a layer of potatoes. Cut a bit of butter over the top, sprinkle with flour (this will help it thicken up, but it’s optional), then sprinkle with parm cheese. Add a layer of ham, a layer of veggies if you want, then more potatoes, more ham & veggies, and more potatoes, and more cheese! Pour the can of soup over it all, then add enough milk so everything is covered. Bake for an hour (at least – if your potatoes are cut thicker, it will take longer) at 400. It’s really hot too – so let it cool for a good 5-10 minutes after you take it out.

Chili, soups and stews are all pretty easy too.

I make sausage & potato soup by browning 1/2 lb sausage, some crumbled bacon (real bacon bits/peices work just as well), garlic, and onions, leeks, or green onions, then adding 2-3 cups chicken broth (or easier – 2-3 cups water and 2-3 chicken bullion cubes), and 2-3 diced potatoes. Cook for an hour or so on medium-low, stirring frequently, and adding more water when necessary. The potatoes will cook themselves off into the soup, making it really thick. At the end, add a few splashes of half & half or cream to give it a little extra flavor.
For some reason, this is especially good with crumbled feta cheese (or any cheese – even sprinkle some parmesan cheese over it) added to the bowl before eating. Sounds bizzare, but it’s my favorite soup ever.

Good luck! There are lots of ways to spice up simple rice or pasta mixes by adding veggies and meat, and they make for quick and easy dinners.

Potato with broccoli and cheese

Get a big potato, clean it, poke a few holes in it and microwave it in a bowl for a couple of minutes.

While that’s being done, wash and chop up a handful of broccoli.

Remove the potato from the microwave, and slice it open. If it’s almost cooked, add the broccoli and some cheddar cheese. If it’s still pretty hard, return the potato to the microwave for another minute or so. When the potato is approaching being done, add the toppings and stick it in the microwave. Cook it for about a minute, or until the cheese melts.

Let it cool slightly, add pepper to taste, and enjoy.

I like this recipe because it’s fast and tasty and feels like junk food but isn’t.
